thinking of swtich tie off Royal Canin Natural Blend cause his poo isn't as hard as it should be. I've heard good things about Timberwolf and was just wondering if any of you have tried their foods.

thanks

I've never tried it, but it gets good reviews on dogfoodanalysis. Are you looking for an alternate protein source?

I switched Roscoe to the Ca natural and right away i started to see more solid poopies but not long after he is back where he was at to start he goes every time we go out and some times its solid and sometimes its not. He has a check up next week so we'll see wht the vet says. Good luck and let me know what you find out.

Salmon based foods have worked well for my two.

They never had really great poops constantly until we switched to raw though.
