cjs food little champ and Tia
hi we have a 11 week old staff cross lab ..Tia is on cjs little champ the same food when we got her and now im just wondering what is it she needs in her diet to stay healthy , as i have read so much it all gets confusing in whats good and whats not ..can anyone point to the ingredients i need to stay away and how do I tell if her diet is right for her ? also she has a bit of dry skin so im guessing she needs some sort of fish oil supplement . many thnaks for any ideas / answers

Re: cjs food little champ and Tia
That isn't a food Ive heard of but what you want to look for is a high meat content (it should be the first ingredient on the list) avoid anything that says meat and animal derivatives, ideally the food should contain actual meat not meat meal. Keep to natural products not ones with additives and persinally I would say avoid grain, stick with rice or potato. This is a very informative site for comparing foods

Also stay away from the "colourful" foods, the colourings are not needed at all. Some foods have supplements added and also glucosamine and chondroitin for joint care.

It really is! I started researching to change dry foods and ended up changing to raw!

Re: cjs food little champ and Tia
She is doing really well on it, gets really excited about every meal and she never did before unless I was cooking her eggs or mince! Her coat is shinny and healthy and doesn't really get the doggy smell anymore. Her eyes don't run all the time like they used to. She also seems more alert and obviously there is no way to know for sure but I think her sense of smell is better

Re: cjs food little champ and Tia
I am really thinking about the raw diet. iI am finding making that decision difficult being a veggie myself. What other supplements do we need to give them or is the meat good enough ?

Re: cjs food little champ and Tia
I'm a veggie too
You don't really need any supplements but I give a few bits to boost Daisy's immune system because she had bad demodex when I rescued her. I also add apple cider vinegar, salmon oil and coconut oil for general health, coat and joints
Have you seen these ?

Re: cjs food little champ and Tia
If you did decide to go down the raw route there are quite a few of us on here feeding raw now so there's plenty of people to give help along the way
