Our 9yr old over weight basset has been eating Eukanuba Low Residue canned and dry food for 2 yrs.She was put on this food by the Vet to help control her weight. This product’s production is very inconsistant in moisture. Sometimes the canned is VERY dry and sometimes OK. We have to buy this food from our Vet. and eventhough she will eat it, we have doubts about it’s nutritional value, not to mention the inconvience and over-price. Since she was put on this food many new dog foods have come on the market. We think that some, or at least one ,of them would surpass her present food in consistancy and nutritional value. We just don’t know which one to consider. Her stomach is sensitive and she does have minor skin issues.Remember that she has a weight problem. We have to use both canned and dry mixed together since feeding her only dry after so many years isn’t an option. This is serious stuff, so please send only serious answers please.
She has hypothyroidism(under active) and is given thyrosin 2xs a day. Sensitive stomach- vomiting bile when her stomach is empty for too long. Treatment for that is metacloprimide2xs a day before meals and a Tums 3xs a day.
She’s already been through the Science Diet WDand RD. Didn’t work for weight loss and her skin was a real mess! Sores and very dry.Science Diet isn’t a choice.
