We are so grateful to Back To Basics.
We were against raw food. Our vets in Australia had talked us into giving our girl,. Sophie (a Siberian Husky) Science Diet kibble. They had a doberman who was 19, what more evidence would you need?
We have struggled with Sophie on different Science Diet formulas and every single one gave her diarrhea. Sophie has literally had diarrhea for almost six years.
Finally, we had to do something. I reached out to dog parents on Facebook and found Back to Basics. We give her the pork and salmon and she LOVES it. There’s no dilly dallying about eating, she is excited to hook into her food.
More importantly, our girl goes #2 max twice per day and it’s good. What is unreal is how quickly everything sorted itself out. From day 1 on Back To basics, Sophie was sorted.
Her beautiful blue and brown eyes are brighter, she’s lost weight, everything is going so well and we are so, so, so grateful.
We add carrots to her meals to help with the breath smell.
I was a bit worried that my dog kelly would not like this combination, as she has never had either of these meats before. I have basically had her on Bison, Elk and Chicken. She loved it . Not much more to say.
This formula has been amazing for our 2 German Shepards with allergies. Their skin and coats look amazing, and no more itchy paws.
Piper loved it.
Our dogs can’t have any feathered creatures and the pork/salmon is a fabulous option. They great great coats and they enthusiastically enjoy every meal.
