chi weight gain; dog food reviews ;

Question
Ok to use the question I just sent in.  I didn't see the part about priority given to non private people

Answer
weight loss in canine; home-cooking to gain weight; grain free feeding;

I would not walk her 1/2 mile every day - Chi dogs tend to have poor knees - patella can be luxating... Walk every other day only...
As for food - the brand you are feeding has a bunch of fillers that can make dogs fat.
I know it has a cute Chi dog on the front of the food bag.

Let's get her to a grain free food :  LOOK for Innova EVO reduced fat food ; Wellness Core reduced fat food or Merrick BEFORE grain - reduced fat food.
YOU can give 1/8 to 1/4 of a cup 2 x per day of a good grain free food.

Mix the old food and the new food for 7 days - to avoid loose stools from the Food change.

Also, I have great luck with my clients taking NuVET Plus supplements.  YOUR baby needs only 1/2 of the powder dosage per day.  ( about 35 Cents per day )
Call NuVET for this Holistic Allergy Blaster supplement - NuVET Plus powder is mixed into the food 1 x per day.
Call 1-800-474-7044
Tell them Pet Nurse Marie is working with you and your chi.
( NuVET is Not sold in any stores - because it is holistic and sold thru Holistic VETs)

Keep me posted...
NEW food and NuVET should do the trick...
Also, feed her 1/4 of a Activia Yogurt for 3 weeks - Van or Plain Flavored Activia - will help to fight off the extra Yeast Bacteria in her gut.
Must be the Activia Brand.
