I always feed a high fat and protein puppy food and a very high protein
fat content dog food. Been doing it for about 10 years and just had to
say goodbye to my 14 /1/2 year old lady.
Domara's Ultra Violet light, lived a good life. Her buddy a Pete of
Fran Jo daughter is now 13 1/2 and from what I can see, is very happy
about it.
I just finished a championship on a dog that is now 9 years and 2
months....Ch. Domara's No One Can Deny ( LOL). He gets the whacko food
also.
I think everyone has to do what they feel is best. Maybe it is the
breeding, the water, the air, the time of a dog's life. But, whatever
works for you is what you have to stick to.
Unless someone really wants to know, I dont tell anyone how or what to
feed..I think it is the breeding, the dog, the life, the food.
