Before too long, the furs on both (a toy poodle and a terrier) became soft and no shedding on the terrier. We also noticed sleep patterns and the "outside trips" didn't cause problems any longer.
All in all, we feel the "holistic" rather than commercial products improved their health and personalities. We still purchase dog food from the pet store in the strip mall behind CVS off 466.

I love that our 86-lb dog poops little cigars. It proves that the quality of what goes in determines the quantity of what comes out. There is so little waste in our dog's kibble, Nature's Logic, suggested by your same pet food store. Garbage in = garbage out and vice versa.

Cfrance.....any idea. Other than paws for a while, where I might find nature's logic. Need some asap.

grain free for ours
 
Our two Lhasa apsas have been grain free about three years now with good results on their coats. I do add fish oil in the mornings.

Thanks Barefoot. Something wrong with the site. I tried earlier. At first says 18 miles away. Then when getting directions, says 2 hours away. Couldn't get through earlier either.

Gerryann, it may be old information and the store may be out of business.
Isn't there a "natural" pet food store in Spanish Springs that sells specialty dog foods?

Nature's Logic is available in the pet food store behind CVS on 466. (I can never remember the name.) Other than that, it's available online at wag.com, chewy.com, petfooddirect.com, dogfooddirect.com, amazon.com.

I have a big dog, so I order the larger size online, and it ships free. Thus other than the aforementioned pet food store behind CVS, I'm not sure if another local store that sells it. But I'm sure you could get the same good results with Merrick or Origen. Most grain-free pet foods don't have a lot of "waste" ingredients. I happen to like Nature's Logic because it has no manufactured supplements in it, thus nothing that could be manufactured by China and legally not listed in the ingredients list. All vitamins in Nature's Logic comes from the food it is made from. (Sorry, Bare... "comes from the food from which it is made":evil6:)

We have a dog that will eat a food for awhile and stop. We thought he was going to starve until we found the answer for him... We make his food. It's not hard and he had eaten it and loved it for a couple of years now.

We no longer have to worry about recalls or him getting sick from tainted food. And he is healthy again.

As to wet over dry....

Thanks, yes Gilda loves the lamb. I get it at the store you're referring to...(Paws For A While) I just lost track of time today and thinking that they closed at 5:00, I got there and found that they are now closing at 4:00 and closed tomorrow....so, out of luck till Monday. She'll survive and I just have to get a little better organized so she doesn't run out again.

Hello,

gerryann 07-18-2015 08:39 PM

I'll bet they like the hand feeding. ;)

Yes G they do. This happens to be my first post on TOTV. My husband and I just bought a CYV and am very excited to be a part of TV. We currently live in NJ and will be driving down in August for a month to get things settled. We actually bought this unit because of the fenced yard. The girls love their yard so this villa style was the perfect place.

Can u Recc a cable company that will allow us to turn on and off several times a year? We also need internet service. I apologize in advance if I'm not suppose to ask questions in this thread.
