We decided to spruce things up and fix some things under the hood. If you notice any issues, feel free to contact us as we're sure there are a few things here or there that we might have missed in our upgrade.
I was reading that Taste of Wild is a high quality dog food however it doesn't look like they have any large breed food. I am currently feeding Diesel, my 10mth old cane corso Royal Canin. Any suggestions of a higher quality food.
Mastiffs don't need large breed or puppy food. Ideally they would have an quality all life stages or adult food that's grain free and chicken free, with the proper levels of calcium and ratio of calcium to phosphorus. Many mastiffs have issues with grains and/or chicken so I recommend avoiding both.
Sierra mountain is the only TOTW that is appropriate for mastiffs under 2. I feed my dogs Earthborn Holistics. There's three formulas that are appropriate coastal catch, meadow feast and Great Plains feast.
Ever since i started feeding my puppy with grain free kibble, he has been having way less "gas" issues so even though i am not an expert, i rcommend it too
well i will go on board with Smart_Family on the food question also. we will be switching Maximus to earthborn holistics also. Thank you all who came to my rescue and made me finally listen to the Dog food guru.
We had ours on TOTW and switched to Earthborn. For some reason the peas, pea protein in Earthborn caused allergies (itching, licking, ear problems, etc). We switched back to TOTW and all are normal again.
I am so bummed that I bought the 50 pound bag of food when I got him, the food they were feeding him. It isn't horrible, it is grain free. I looked yesterday and it is 1.10% calcium and .90% phosphorus. Is that bad? It is called Holistics. I also don't know if I am feeding him too much. I think I am. His stools after eating are solid, but he has 1-2 a day that are not totally solid. He is pooping 4-5 times a day and I know that is too much. I am prepared to change, I think to the Earthborn (maybe a shelter will take an opened bag of food?). I feed him 2 cups 2 times a day.
so even though i am not an expert, i rcommend it too
