Zoey's sensitive tummy

Zoey (pictured on right with her brother Tucker) has always had a bit of a dodgy tummy. She'd seem fine, full of vim and vigor, and then ralph all over the floor. We'd taken her to the vet and she'd been given a clean bill of health, so we wondered if managing her diet might help.

 

We went to our local Mud Bay to see if we could find her a yummy, balanced diet that was gentle on her tummy. The staff helped us pick out a few foods to try that would be easy on her, and that she would like. We selected Avoderm Oven Baked Chicken dry kibble, as it seems to be a more easily digestible dry food, and California Natural Chicken canned food, which also seems to be easily digestible. We give both dogs some variety by adding different Natural Balance cans every once in a while. It was also suggested that we feed her dinner earlier in the evening so she has a chance to digest things more fully (and do all the business she needs) before bedtime, which may have helped the most. Although we haven't eliminated the problem in it's entirety, it has gotten a whole lot better.
