What do you feed your dog?
My dog has a very sensitive stomach--the doctor checked her out a while back and said she was fine and has no problems that would cause it. Of course, I then get told the best food for her to eat is the one that you can only get in a vets office. It was a prescription Science Diet food. I do have to say that it worked great but was expensive.
We tried to find a food that was comparable with it but every food she tries, she's gotta go to the bathroom several times a day. It is crazy. I know many cheap dog foods put a lot of fillers in them so we would opt for the more expensive--but not as expensive as the vets food. All worked the same. I even said heck with it and started making her my own version of dog food but I read that homemade dog food lacks nutrients that commercial dog food has. Huh?. So I stopped.
I don't want to keep switching her so it makes her stomach even more sensitive, but I can't stand taking her out so many times a day to "go". And believe me, she goes potty every time we go outside. I just can't understand why a really good dog food like that is only available at the vets office and for so much?
Anyone have any suggestions for a dog with sensitive stomachs that doesn't require a trip to the vet and wont break the bank?
