I fed this to a couple of dogs who shedded a LOT! It improved it greatly. I was just fascinated by it. The tiny guy got 1/4 tspn on each meal, while the other got 1/2 tsp twice a day.

It did help with their skin and coat, but I am wondering...

Is it beneficial for poodles? Since there’s not a shedding problem, it’s not needed for that. But is it still good for their skin and coat? And could it hurt them?

  1. Not tolerating current food/transitioning to adult food

    Poodle Food

  2. How to Switch to Cooked Diet?!?

    Poodle Food
    I'm feeling pretty overwhelmed right now. I've been trying to figure out how to build a balanced diet for Snow without anything that he might be currently reacting to in his previous dog foods. When he was a puppy, I feed him Science Diet Large Breed Puppy and then switched to Science Diet...

  3. Anyone else feed Purina Pro Plan?

    Poodle Food
    I used to give my girls grain free, but the vet recommended Purina formulated and a couple of others that have not been identified with cardiomyopathy. I was feeding Zignature, and before that Merrick. I was skeptical, but decided it couldn't hurt to switch if it removed a few of the...

  5. Is it OK to feed table food as long as she eats kibble well?

    Poodle Food
    Is there any harm in feeding table food (that dogs can eat) as treats? I assume this was done regularly before commercial pet food. Our toy enjoys her “proper dog food meals” (kibble) as well as table food. Thanks!

  6. How much ground eggshell (for calcium) should I be giving my 5 pound toy poodle daily?

    Poodle Food
    Hello! I have a 5 pound toy poodle who I home cook for (I wish he would eat a high quality kibble but I've tried them all and he turns his nose up; very picky little guy, and not food driven at all.) I make his meals homemade and freeze them for convenience. The recipes I use include things...
