Hello, I am new here today, I see this is an 'older' thread - however this thread is the reason I signed up. I've just started my 2 Shih-Tzus on HURRAW dog food, last night was the first taste & then their breakfast this morning. So far, everything is great - I'm not anticipating any problems as I was already feeding them a dehydrated raw food prior to this one. They were eating Grand Cru by Canisource, I first tried the beef flavor, that was with grains, but my female didn't seem to be reacting well to that, she has chronic ear problems and has had for years now - she'll be 9 on April 21st....the vet says it's yeast....but, I've pretty much given up on the vet to be honest...switching to all natural everything as much as possible. I worry that I have over vaccinated my dogs, and my female with the ear issues had some major dental surgery done and had half her teeth removed a number of years ago. I'm fairly certain that the surgery, antibiotics, and Lord knows what else she was given....has something to do with her ear issues. Since switching the food however, there has been a HUGE improvement, although - I decided to try the Grand Cru fish flavor which is grain free once the beef w/grains was finished. Well, idk what it was about that flavor but it had both of my dogs scratching, my male starting chewing at his feet, which is something he's never done before. So, off to the dog food store I went yesterday, spoke to the girl in there and she directed me to HURRAW. I purchased the 5kg box of the fish flavor, the kibble pieces are alot easier for my dogs to break up themselves compared to the GC and I LOVE the fact that HURRAW has a limited # of ingredients compared to GC. Also, the ingredients in HURRAW - at least in the fish flavor, (although I'm sure the other 2 flavors are great as well) - are fantastic!! Pumpkin, apple cider vinegar, turmeric, ginger - there are NO green peas which is something I worry my dogs may have an issue with, and of course, there are other ingredients as well - the ones I've listed are things I know are fabulous ingredients that my dogs will benefit greatly from. So, I am very excited about this new food and hope that it will be our forever food, the cost of a 5kg box was $70.99 plus tax - I live in Ontario. They each eat approx. 3/4 - 1 cup per day and I figure that feeding my dogs a good quality food will save me on vet bills in the long run. Both of my babies are at the senior stage now, my male just turned 7 and we are not very active, unfortunately - due to health issues of my own. So, hopefully this food will keep them happy and healthy for a long time to come still.
