Natural Balance Soft & Chewy Dog Treats

What's a better food Acana singles or Natural Balance l.i.d.? My dog does well on both but seems to do particularly well on the natural balance. I thought Acana was better so I'm confused to why she does better on the natural balance? Is natural balance still a good brand, why or why not? Thanks!

Getting and has many new Fatty tumors. She has been on Natural Balance Duck,Chicken and Salmon wet food for a long time and Science Diet for years before the Natural Balance she loves the Natural Balance very well but i'm having trouble keeping up with her arthiritis needs.

The foods I'm considering for my dog are natural balance lid and Merrick lid. Natural balance is 20% protein and would provide between 11 and 13 grams of protein per day. The Merrick is 25% protein and would provide about 16 grams of protein per day. My dog is a cavalier King Charles spaniel, 5 years old and relatively inactive. What would be a better option for her. I will note the Merrick is slightly less calories than the natural balance. Natural balance is 350-375 and Merrick is 350 calories

My dog does exceptionally well on Natural Balance L.I.D. Small breed bites, is this a high quality brand, or are brands like Fromm and Acana better? She has the best stool on the Natural Balance for whatever reason. Is it ok to just stick with that brand? The darker colored stools are from Natural Balance. The middle one is on Fromm I believe. Thanks!

I noticed when my dog was on natural balance it took her about 2-3 hours to digest her food. (Have a bowel movement) On Orijen it takes her over 5 hours to digest her food. Does that mean natural balance its easier for her to process? On natural balance she would have a bowel movement 2-3 times per day. On Orijen she only goes twice sometimes. she also seemed to have better stools on natural balance. On other foods her stools are not as firm and they are sometimes lighter colored, like tanish.

I am planning to switch my dog from natural balance to Nulo dog food. Natural Balance has 20% protein and 10% fat. Nulo has 30% protein and 17% fat. Is this ok? Is the higher fat something to be worried about with her predisposition to heart disease? Of course I will have to feed slightly less of the Nulo than Natural Balance because Nulo has more calories. I frankly feel like I can trust the brand Nulo more than I can Natural Balance. Please explain your answer. She's a 5 year old Cavalier.

What's a better quality brand natural balance or both Acana and Fromm? I'm considering using either just natural balance L.I.D. Or both Acana singles and Fromm? what would you do and why? Please explain your answer. Thanks!

Can I feed my dog half natural Balance kibble mixed with half white rice to lessen the protein content slightly? She's not active at all and I don't think she needs much protein. Is this ok, why or why not? Thanks! The natural balance is 20% protein.

I'm in a bit of a pickle. My dog has slightly better stools on Natural Balance but I prefer Fromm better based on the ingredients. What should I do and why? Below are pictures of each stool based on the different foods. The one on the right is natural balance.

Why is Fromm considered a better food than natural balance? Please explain.

This question is for Sybil Davis: Is the one gram of protein per pound of body weight a strict rule or can it be improvised? Right now my dogs on Natural Balance she is not getting that much protein. I would say she's getting between 12-14 grams per day. Is this enough for her? She's 17 pounds. If I fed her more of the natural balance she would be getting more protein but then she would be fat. The natural balance is 20% protein. Should I switch to something that's 25% protein? Why or why not?
