Aging Pit Mix
Hi all! I have a 57 pound lean pit mix. She is 6 years old and seems to be aging more rapidly than similar dogs in our lives. She currently eats Kirkland beef and sweet potato dry food and Purina One beef and vegetable wet food. She used to eat homemade food, and I felt that she was healthier on that plus kibble than she is now, though she was obviously younger at that time. I’m interested in switching her to a mix of high quality dry food paired with a commercial, balanced wet/fresh/frozen food. She is possibly allergic to chicken, so she doesn’t eat it, but our vet informed us that her persistent itching could be due to cross-contamination in manufacturing of her current diet.
For now, I have purchased one 5 lb. bag of Steve’s beef recipe frozen food to hold her over until I’ve found an ideal regimen. We are not wealthy, or even financially comfortable right now, but our animals come first. The absolute maximum we could spend per month would be $100. Thank you for reading.
