Eukanuba is a winner!

For the last year and a half, Indee hasn't been eating much, and she was wasting away and lacking in energy. When she came to live with us, I tried mixing cottage cheese with her food or softening it with water, thinking it might be easier on her old lady teeth, but she would eat a few bites at most, look at me with her sad, doleful eyes, and walk away. My heart would sink. I was very much distraught over her health... my poor puppy that I've had since high school must be dying.........

And then one day, I heard some crunching in the kitchen during feeding time, but it wasn't Lucy. It was Indee stealing Lucy's kibble! I was so ecstatic over her pilfering that I gave Indee more of Lucy's Eukanuba, and she ate it. I gave her more, and she ate that too! Turns out, the only sick Indee was, was over her own food. We've found that Eukanuba makes a lamb and rice formula for senior dogs (Indee, amongst other ailments, is allergic to corn, which is used in most regular kibble), and now Indee gobbles her new kibble right up whenever we put it in front of her! It's such a relief that Indee is eating again! She looks healthier in weight and she's fuller in energy.

They say having a pet is good training for parenting, and I would agree with that. I now know how mothers feel when their babies refuse to eat! ...maybe they should try Eukanuba. Worked for my baby. :)


Look how happy and sprightly Indee is at the dog park!
