Mga sis!!:) Feeling ko naman tama un pag popostan ko ng problem.

ang aking Chuck kasi super sensitive pa din ng skin.
kapag kumain ng ibang food mag rereact agad un balat with itchy red patches sa inner thigh, stomach, at leeg. sabi ng vet, namana daw niya sa parents nya yung pagiging galisin at sensitive.
2-3 months na siyang kumakain ng special food(Prescription ZD Dog Food) kasi un lang un hindi nagpapaallergy sa kanya.
iniisip ko ngayon kung meron bang ibang mag papabuti sa skin condition nya and kung ok ba un food nya ngayon.

Thanks thanks!!

^may supplements ba? try mo bigyan kasi kapag mababa ang immune system, madaling tablan nang mga allergy at syempre, iba pang sakit. or, try mo yung ginagawa nung iba dito, ikaw na mismo magluto.

Yun na nga prob sis e. wala ako sa pinas, parents and sister ko lang nag aasikaso sa kanya. na try ko na siya pakainin ng Lamb and Apple pero ganun pa din effect sa kanya.
hindi nawawala un allergy.

may nakita pa naman akong article na hindi ok un brand na un pero dun kasi siya nahiyang..

pinaka nakatulong sa baby Kobe ko is VCO. i apply it sa buong katawan niya non ginalis siya. a day or two before his weekly bath. i also gave it to him orally, half teaspoon a day lang po.

^i agree, kasi kapag mahina ang immune system ng dog, madali sila tablan ng skin diseases.

My Maltese suddenly went from being a voracious eater to playing with pieces of her Kibble and not eating it in just two weeks. I don't know what happened. I'm thinking she liked our trip to Batangas so much that when we went back to Manila, she got depressed. I know she's hungry because when I offer something, she will still smell it. But once she realize that it's kibble, she turns up her nose. It's so frustrating. There's nothing else about her behavior that warrants a trip to the vet. I think she's just being a picky eater so I'll wait her out for 3 more days. Nakakastress!!!

She's on Eagle Pro puppy. We have a trial pack of Solid Gold for small dogs pero ganun pa rin, ilang piraso lang kainin nya. I'm not going back to Acana because ayoko poopoo nya dun. Can't experiment with Canidae because it causes bad tear stains daw sa Maltese e she has tear stains na. Royal Canin Indoor naman has grains as primary ingredients. Anyone knows where to get Go Nat trial packs?

She's still so excited with her biscuits. So I tried to crush it up and sprinkle over her kibble. Ang ginawa, dinilaan lang and niluwa yung kibble. Argh!

^hindi kaya masyadong matigas yung kibble? baka mas gusto niya yung basa? kapag hindi pa rin nag work, at wala naman siyang sakit, masigla, gutumin mo muna as in pati treats wag ka magbigay.

banoffi · « **Reply #226 on:** November 19, 2013, 05:55:46 pm »

We went back to softened kibble, no effect. If it were up to me, tiisin ko talaga sya. But my mom who's with her most of the time, kaya imanipulate. The other night, hinaluan ng rice. Binibigyan din ng treats. I want to exhaust all tough love options sana before trying alternatives.

mga sis ok ba ibigay ang reno (liver spread) sa mga babies natin??? tinry ko kasi sa 2 babies ko at gustong gusto nila ..liver spread and kibbles lang.. no rice

^^naku! mommy mo na pagalitan mo. hehe! sa bahay kasi namin pinagagalitan ko parents ko sa ganyan. anyway, basta naghahain ko ng kibbles. kapag di nila ginalaw ever, tinatanggal ko na. basta may tubig lagi ah. sa amin, kumakain lang sila kapag tapos na kami kumain so nung time na picky sila, nasa table yung food bowl or may acting-an na kumakain kami sa food bowl nila. ayun, nauuto naman.

^actually, hindi advisable magbigay ng canned goods. pero kung di na maiiwasa, konting konti lang. malakas naman pang-amoy nila.

banoffi · « **Reply #229 on:** November 20, 2013, 02:47:08 pm »

@rinapie, cause na sya ng sigawan sa bahay namin araw araw. My mom is like an in-law/parent who's nakikiaalam with how you raise your kid, but you can't do anything about it.

abuanddiego · « **Reply #230 on:** November 22, 2013, 02:07:23 am »

^baka nagiinarts lang junakis mo! sabayan pa ng pangungunsinti ng lola, mahirap talaga yan

explain mo na lang na kailangan tiisin para madiagnose ano talagang cause ng problema. kasi pag playful at mukhang okay naman, usually psychological lang yan. tough love lang kailangan, lalo na pag mag-isa tapos super spoiled at attached, sila yung number one sa kaartehan.

yung shih tzu ko ganyan dati super dali manawa kahit pinagluluto ko ng food, tagal din namin nagstick sa vitamins kasi yun lang nagpapagana sa kanya. pero nung nagkaron ng kasama aba inuubos pa yung food ng anak nya! kahit walang vitamins ang lakas nya kumain. try mo na lang magbigay ng vitamins para bumalik ang appetite.

re Go Natural trial packs, parang wala na ata silang ganyan, smallest bag na yung 2kilos.

coyenho, avoid processed food as much as possible, treat them like your lolos and lolas, bawal na yung maalat, mavetsin, fatty, oily. maliit lang kasi yung internal organs nila at di sila sanay sa processed food, think of a wolf in the wild, kung ano yung food nila, dun mostly magbebenefit ang dogs. opt for fresh food than processed ones, if you can't give raw, boil it na lang but under low-medium heat lang and don't overcook the meat to avoid nutrient loss. kidney din kasi nila magsusuffer in the long run pag inispoil natin sila sa human food.

yung mga junakis ko kahit ulam namin madalang ko bigyan, usually yung mga cartilage and meaty parts lang sa kanila tapos wash ko muna mabuti bago ibigay. kahit magpacute sila sakin wala akong pake, sinisipa ko pa sila para umalis sa harapan ko haha! i don't want them to beg kasi, pinaggogrocery at luto ko na nga sila, PG pa rin ang result? unfair naman yun sakin diba!

banoffi · « **Reply #231 on:** November 24, 2013, 10:18:31 am »

Her previous vitamins was Doggy Doggy. I went to the vet to get a new one, LC Vit lang binigay. Wala kasi Raffavit or Papi. Mas gusto tapaga magutom. She begs for table scraps a lot but when we give her dog food with different toppers (yogurt, peanut butter, carrots, etc) she tries to separate talaga yung dog food. Hihiwalay talaga nya yung gusto nya lang. This is the same dog who's not so fond of water. She spits the water when we try to trick her with biscuits on the bottom of the water bowl. Too smart for her own good.

abuanddiego · « **Reply #232 on:** November 25, 2013, 03:10:10 am »

^was the raffavit effective? naku mukhang tough love talaga kailangan, i think your dog is too spoiled

i can feel it kasi ganyan din alaga ko haha! don't baby her too much kasi kayo rin mahirapan. lalo na pag nagkasakit or aalis kayo, dun nyo marerealize kung anong klaseng monster sila haha! spoiled dogs din kasi yung prone sa separation anxiety. so ang hirap pag naiiwan sila para silang nababaliw. try to ignore the bad behavior tapos be strict during meal times, do the 15-20min rule, kainin man o hindi alisin nyo na after 15min yung food bowl to instill discipline.

Mga sis pede ba quaker oats sa dogs? Nabasa ko [textspeak!] [textspeak!] acana may oat flakes . Balak ko mag switch vitality sa acana kaso parang sa mga pet express lang makakakita nito.ok naman sya sa vitality kaso may flakes pa din ako nakita sa skin nya hndi kaya kulang nutrients ng kibbles? I gave him na fishoil so far na lessen [textspeak!] pag flakes ng skin. May nakita ko mga 1-2 flakes sa fur nya..Give na din ako ng veggies and one time binigyan ko pa sya ng fruit shake mango banana.hehe..

abuanddiego · « **Reply #234 on:** November 26, 2013, 10:50:34 am »

^pwede naman ang oats sa kanila, i substitute oatmeal with rice paminsan kaso malagkit at mas mahal haha!

yung mga dogfood created sila to be complete and balanced kaso fresh food will always be better than dogfood. kasi kahit pa sabihing galing sya sa human grade ingredients, dadaan na yan sa madaming process at synthetic vitamins madalas ginagamit, so iba na yung composition nila pag naging kibble. at yung iba made from poor quality ingredients pa so wala rin. since i found out the true story behind kibbles, tingin ko na sa kanila ay junk food, canned goods, instant noodles, hotdog, nuggets hehe. yes pagkain sila pero unhealthy.

ang food ng mga alaga ko ngayon is home made, mas kampante kasi akong fresh food kinakain nila than premium kibbles, same lang naman kasi gastos sa meat so bat pa ako bibili ng processed food diba? tapos i give vitamins na lang. happy naman ako sa results kasi ang bibigat nila without being obese. once a day lang din sila magpoop at di sila madaling bumaho.

coyenho · « **Reply #235 on:** November 26, 2013, 03:13:35 pm »

Sis what mos/age mo nag start mag home food tska sa rice?meron kasi ako 6mos and 1 3mos. Tinry ko kanna haluan ng squash [textspeak!] food ng mga babies ko then hotdog. FAILED!

konti lang nakain. Mamaya mag boil ako ng chicken. Tubig lang ba ilalagay wala nang ibang pampalasa?. Ano-ano mga niluluto nyo for them ? Panay boiled lang ba ? Iba ba ang table food? Starter plang ako medyo nahihirapan ako mag isip ano ggwin sa chicken,beef,pork .

rinapie · « **Reply #236 on:** November 26, 2013, 05:03:54 pm »

^kapag nagpapakain ako ng home cooked or kapag nasira tiyan nila, boiled chicken/fish and rice lang. walang asin o ano pa man. bumibili din kami ng chicken neck, boil and inihahalo sa dog food.

^^nakakatuwa ang kasipagan mo magluto!

abuanddiego · « **Reply #237 on:** November 27, 2013, 01:29:29 am »

coyenho, sis puppies pa lang mga junakis ko nagluluto na ako for them. nandidiri kasi ako sa kibbles, tingin ko talaga sa kanila ay junk food haha! yung bulldog ko mga 4mos to 1.5yr homecooked na sya. nagtry na rin ako iraw sya during that time. tapos nagtry ako ng canidae for a year okay naman kaso yung poop nya soft lagi kaya balik raw tapos now homecooked naman. he is 5yo btw.

yung shih tzus ganun din kahit puppies pa lang, home made dog food na sila. maarte kasi yung 1st shih tzu ko, mapili sya sa kibbles, acana lamb and apple and eagle pro lamb lang type nya. kaya raw or homecooked na lang. kasi when you compute the gastos pag maliit lang dogs mo, halos same lang ang premium kibbles and meat, ibang usapan pag big dogs haha! pero at least di tayo mahihirapan bumili ng dogfood kasi sabay na sa grocery food nila.

boil lang talaga sis in low heat, no need for salt and other pampalasa. tsaka di rin kasi advisable yung high heat kasi nawawala nutrients ng food. remember wala gano tastebuds mga dogs so matabang panlasa nila haha more on pang-amoy sila. ang staple namin is chicken meat or pork meat with some organs like liver or gizzard. usually with rice yan then nagaadd ako ng squash, papaya, sayote, carrots, some leafy greens. pero yung veggies mashed and finely chopped for easier digestion. hirap kasi sila magdigest ng plant matters so dapat durog na durog yung veggies and fruits. btw, i seldom give them table food, kasi yung food nila is ulam na rin wala nga lang timpla haha so yun na rin treats nila. pero pag nagbigay ako ng table food, meat and cartilage lang.

rinapie, thanks sis! mahilig kasi talaga ko magluto kaya naeenjoy ko paggawa ng food nila

coyenho · « **Reply #238 on:** November 27, 2013, 12:28:53 pm »
