I was buying the Pure Balance Lamb and Brown Rice but it seems that they quit making it.

Any recs on a good and cost effective food for a lab with a sensitive stomach. The food that I was using really eliminated the gas and upset stomach so I really hate that this is now unavailable.

Absolutely do not feed your animal raw eggs

Put some yogurt on top of his food. It helps cut down on those horrific old dog farts.

The entire brand? Or just that one. I need dog food today and that’s the brand I get.

For your question - Kirkland brand at Costco has a grain free that’s supposed to be well rated and is half the price of your current food.

It's just the lamb and brown rice formula. I couldn't find it on their website anymore so I am guessing that they quit making it. That food is great. It really eliminated all aspects of his upset stomach.

dogs will eat a decomposing carcass that’s a week old and be fine. But omg a raw egg

They’re perfectly safe for dogs to consume. If all your feeding your dog is raw egg, it can lead to biotin deficiency, but that takes a whole frick ton of eggs. My lab gets a raw egg in his food every other day. At his last vet visit, the vet commented about how wonderful his coat and skin were.

If you’re that worried, you can cook it. Eggs are great for dogs skin, stomach, and coat.

Not cheap, but this Science Diet is what my brother used for his dog.

Fromm is a decent not terrible cost food that rarely gets hit with a recall, it has a lamb version.

Not any better than most any other big box food. They just got hit by a massive recall as well on sensitive stomach dog food that killed a ton of dogs. Such a scam food, sad the Vets get behind it.

I recently switched to Purina’s Pro Plan Senative Stomach after years of PPP 30/20. So far so good.

I’d say Science Diet is the best, but it makes my dog shite hay bails all day.

My dog Nikki is a lab mix, mutt with a bunch of different breeds in it. She has a sensitive stomach and I feed her Canidae that I get off chewy.com and have delivered. She use to be a gassy girl however with the new dog food she eats (past 4 months or so), she isn't as gassy, her coat looks better and her shits are regular and healthy. Canidae dog from chewy

rice?

Dogs don't need rice or wheat in their food. If you look at the ingredients, wheat is one of the major ingredients but dogs don't need that fricking shite.

Chicken breast and raw egg is good. If need be, give your dog some liver, but not a big piece and raw is best.

I have a couple 12 year old cockers with sensitive stomachs. Try "Taste of the Wild." We've had great success with that food. The pups coats look fantastic since we switched.
