QUESTION:

I have a great dane that has some skin issues around his legs. He often itches until they are raw. I have had him on Iams (green bag with Dane on bag) for awhile. Thought I would consider a different food souce to see if that would help him. A girl at PetSmart suggested your store and a product called California Natural with Herin/sweet potatos or salmon/sweet potatoes. I am also looking to not break the bank and pay around $35/40lbs. Any suggestions for me in my situation? Thanks Much!

ANSWER:

Many of our customers with the same issue have had great success with changing their dogs to a grain free diet. We have several brands of food that have a grain free line that we could recommend. Our grain free goods start at $39.99 for a 30# bag. Not only should you see your dogs itching dramatically decease or even stop, you will feed less of this food and have less waste to clean up.

The food you mentioned specifically, California Natural Herring & Sweet Potato, is good food and because it is a fish formula provides the dogs with good levels of Omega 3's & 6's which can help with dry skin which may be a symptom your dog is experiencing.

We would love to meet you and your dog so we could talk about all of the options available. Just stop by the store closest to you and any of our knowledgeable team members can discuss this issue further with you. See a list of our stores.

Have a great day!
