My German Shepherd almost died the end of Jan.2008, due to a severe Urinary Track infection, and many stones they also found in his bladder. They sent me home with antibiotics and cans of their food to feed him for the next two months, and they questioned me on what I was feeding him. Of course, regular dog food. At that time I didnt realize what terrible ingredients were in the REGULAR dog food! My dog Knight finally after 5 days of not eating, and hardly even drinking any water started to come around from the antibiotics. I then started to read on line about the UTIs in dogs, and saw that many illnesses were caused by the ingredients in many processed dog foods on the markets. I then went out and bought one of the all natural brands at PetSmart, and started feeding him that. Knight not only loved the food, but his health picked up and his eyes were brighter, and his coat was thick, shiny and beautiful. He had the energy he use to have when he was three or four. He is 7 years old now, but I never thought he would live to see 8 there for a while. He was even getting me up 4 to 5 times a night to go outside. Now he may get me up once during the night, some nights not at all. He sleeps peacefully with no more pain. Im trying to get the message to all pet owners on how horrible many dog foods sold on the market are. I am not naming names, but you know the ones. Ive been feeding him Avoderm Natural, and also my daughters English Bulldog. They are doing very well, and the English Bulldogs coat is like silk. I even called my vet, and told him about the change in Knight. They were happy to hear it. I think the vets know whats going on, but dont, or cant talk about it. Im so glad your German Shepherd is doing so well now also! I told my husband, I would rather pay more for GOOD dog food, than putting the money into surgery, tests, and medications for my dog. He agreed. Good luck with your dog too! I just had to comment. Thanks for listening!
