I think that's the main reason you don't find a lot of people that feed it. I do know a few though, and I tried it once. Gypsy didn't do well on it; I think it is just too rich. She had chronic soft stools for the entire 2.5 months that I had her on it. PetIDtag.com Keep ID on your pet! Profits go to rescues in NC

Rashmi Kumar Webboard User Reg: 04-23-2005 Posts: 268 Loc: NYC Offline	Kristen, Thanks a lot. At least I know now that I am not feeding my pup something outdated. Now that you have mentioned- it is rather TOO EXPENSIVE for a normal human being. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />I am going to switch Matrix to GOLD/ INOVA. It is just such a long process to change their diet. I think Matrix does well on WELLNESS- when on it- his stool is big thick logs and looks very fiborous. What do you feed Gypsy? Thanks, Rashmi

Vicki Heiman Webboard User Reg: 05-30-2005 Posts: 115 Loc: Fox River Valley, Wisconsin Offline	FYI Montmorillonite An organic trace mineral colloidal silcate which contains a combination of over 50 organic mineral compounds including Antimony, Barium, Beryllium, Boron, Bromine, Cadmium, Carbon, Cerium, Cesium, Chloride, Chromium, Cobalt, Copper, Dysprosium, Fluoride, Gadolinium, Gallium, Germanium, Iodine, Lanthanum, Lithium, Manganese, Neodymium, Nickel, Phosphorus, Rhenium, Rubidium, Samarium, Scandium, Silicon, Silver, Strontium, Sulfur, Tellurium, Thallium, Thorium, Tin, Titanium, Vanadium, Ytterbium, Yttrium, Zinc, and Zirconium. Many pet owners have reported the benefits of these colloidal silicate minerals including better coat, weight gain, increase in milk production, better conception and overall better health. Recent feed studies by the Veterinary Medical Diagnostics Laboratory at Texas A&M University and elsewhere have shown that monmorillonite clays can effectively sequester (bind) aflatoxin contained in grains and oilseeds.

susanknight Webboard User Reg: 07-14-2005 Posts: 18 Loc: Geogia Offline	Just wanted to thank you Ed. I have made the change to raw meat and veg diet. My male GS has improved 99% since the change six months ago. Before he was on the verge of being a very timid dog. I talked to trainers and had him evaluated. Everyone said he was a product of bad breeding. I now know he IS NOT. It was his diet. He is now very bright and more self assured. I am having more success in his training because he is so much more focused. Not to mention how great his coat looks. I have people stopping to stare at him. He is now a credit to the GS breed. Thanks again. My true friends are the animals

Every pup I ever have had was weaned with yogurt mixed into mash with puppy chow. I don't feed it any more. I did notice that stools were always very soft after eating dairy.

danielle pickering Webboard User Reg: 04-18-2005 Posts: 15 Loc: Offline	I've been feeding my dog Nature's Variety for about 9 months now. I switched him from Solid Gold (Wolf Cub). I thought it was going to be better for him since it has you rotate the meats. I've been nervous about making the transition to raw but especially after reading this post I really need to get a move on.
