Food Challenges

The past five months of radio silence have been filled with work, travel, and more food challenges.

A few months ago, Barksdale started having diarrhea. We chalked that up to just something random she ate off the ground. A few days later, Ender started having diarrhea. Now we were having two dogs with epic dumps which included some accidents in the house. Thinking that we purchased a bad bag of dog food, we repurchased another bag. Same thing. We knew it was the food since their diarrhea subsided when we implemented a three meal fast for the dogs.

So being shaken out of the same ol' same ol' by the stench of poo, we made the decision to change their dog good. We switched from Natural Balance Sweet Potato and Venison to California Natural Grain Free Lamb.

And holy moly has the change been awesome. They have been on the new food for about a month and the pros so far include:

1. No more stinky butt
2. No more epic farting

The downside is that pet food stores do not regularly carry this product. Therefore we have become one of "those people" and specially order our dog food. Because of this we have stopped shopping at Pet Club and now purchase our food from Dog Bone Alley, which will accept dog food returns in cases of epic diarrhea.
