Due to a intestinal condition my 2 year old dog has, she is probably going to be on a high fiber diet her whole lifeI have always given her the Science Diet WD as prescribed by my vet because it is literally the only thing I have found to workIf i feed her ANYTHING else she has chronic diarrhea due to her conditionMy question is.is there a high fiber dog food that I don't need a prescription for and actually has decent ingredients? Science Diet is mostly corn and flavoringI don't mind spending the money if it wont cause my dog to be sickIf you need to know her condition it is that the idiots that owned her before me did NOT take care of her has a puppy and so the intestinal parasites ruined her to the point that anything that is not high fiber causes massive irriation.
Hello Ana There is a very good dog food website dog-food-aid and it may well be worth looking at at all of the food styles and options mentioned thereGood thing about this website is it does not focus solely on dry foodI'll put a link below for youWhen you have tried alternative food have you done slow changeovers? Chronic diarrhea can be caused by not switching foods over slowlyYou will also find further information on that in the website I mentionedHope this helps and good luck.
Oatmeal Grapefruit Quick Bread INGREDIENTS 3 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 4 teaspoons baking powder 3/4 teaspoon baking soda 2/3 cup honey 1/4 cup margarine, softened 1 2/3 cups rolled oats 1 egg 1 1/4 cups grapefruit juice 1 cup chopped walnuts DIRECTIONS Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C)Sift together flour, salt, baking powder and soda into a large mixing bowlIn a medium bowl, mix honey together with butter or margarine until creamyAdd to flour mixture along with the oats, egg, grapefruit juice and walnutsStir together until smooth and pour into a lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf panBake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Bread making is fun and easy once you get the hang of how it should feel and when it has risen enough.SUBSTITUTE some fiber ingredients you want to your flour totalI don't usually change more than 1/2Sometimes if your want a fairly heavy bread you would want to add some extra sweetener (I add molasses if I put a lot of graham and/or rye flour to the mix) Adding oatmeal is nice too for the texture.
