    Grey Owners - What Food Recommend

    Fellow Grey Owners - Advice Sought.

    I have gone and done it now, :grin: I have adopted a 2nd Grey, he is a fawn boy of 2 called Marley. He compliments Niamh wonderfully, when she gets back to full health it will be great seeing them walk and bounce together....

    Ah, but I digress...

    What I would like to ask is what food would you recommend for Marley who has a gluten intolerance? It's a mine field out there.

    Many thanks

    Andy

    All my lot are on CSJ including Guinness who has had a dicky tum before. They're all doing very well on it. There is a lamb and rice wheat and gluten free version too.
    There are lots of dog foods that are gluten free. They sell them in PAH. James Wellbeloved is a good one too.
    Congratulations on adopting your second grey!! Addictive aren't they?!!:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

    Greys can have sensitive tummys. Mine are both fed Burgess Supadog sensitive soaked, with some cooked meat added and it has done the trick for them and they look really good on it.

    Mine are on Fish4dogs at the moment but i am probably going to change back to Skinners Field and Trial salmon and rice or the duck and rice which is gluten free, salmon is £23 and duck is £19 from Vet UK with free delivery. I will supplement with some frozen salmon or sardines as the meat content is not as good as it could be but apart from that its very similar to Burns but for half the price.

    Or you can have a grey like mine who'll eat ANYTHING! Preferably something she's not meant to be having :roll:

    Fish4dogs has a protein content of 26%. I thought we had to keep it below 22% ??

    Congratulations on the new addition!

    I used to feed mine on fish4dogs salmon till i had to economise with skinners FT salmon & rice, i fed less (approx 300g v 380g a day) so imagine the actual grams of protein consumed isn't that different. Anyway i found it made no difference to energy levels and gave him a lovely shiny soft coat. I don't think its as clear cut as just reading % on the bag and source of the protein (animal/plant) is important

    Firstly congratulations on your new addition ,greys are addictive. I always feed james wellbeloved and nature diet. This seemed to suit them all as one of my dogs suffered from bowel upsets and been fine on this .

    Naturediet is a brand of vacuum packed dog food made from meat, rice and vegetables as is Natures Harvest and Natures Menu.

    @ smokeybear.

    I want to put weight on both my Greys, would I feed just these or use in conjunction with dry mix? How many do year feed yours?

    thanks

    :lol: :lol: Hi nature diet comes in both puppy sensitive and a range of flavours chicken lamb etc . It is made from natural ingrediants and is holostic, diet . it contains rice and vegatables and excellent value for money ithink. and one of the closest foods to a natural diet . pets at home are a good stockist of nature diet. if you type in nature diet on your web browser you should find all the questions on the product along with the answers my hazy suffers with colitis and since he was on this along with james wellbeloved there has been a dramatic improvement i been using this combination now for over six years on my dogs of varying breeds and they done very well .it looks and smells great and for a vegatarian that lol.
