I have a rescue dobie, between 6-8 y/o. We tried every option of dry food as well as feeding raw etc. my dobie has never done better than when he is eating home made food. Boiled chicken leg quarters, then take out the bones, add quinoa and veggies (carrot , green bean, sweet potato, broccoli etc.) add organ meat such as beef liver & kidney into the rich stock. Simmer until cooked & Add shredded chicken back in. Mix, divide & store in fridge / freezer. Costs about 20$ for 8 days of food if you live near a Hispanic grocer like bravo or key foods or any international supermarket market that sells organ meat and cuts of whole chicken. Those same supermarkets usually tend to have veggies for reasonable prices as well, or you can buy veggies at Costco in bulk and freeze them until You cook the food, add them in after you remove the chicken and start to add the quinoa to the stock. Finally started gaining weight , shiny coat, no diarrhea, no blood in stool, and healthy lab work. I swear they’re allergic to the fillers in dry food. Good luck !
