    I came across this website a while ago and had it saved to my favorites. I think it takes a very good analytical approach to the ingredients in dog food without pushing you to a certain brand or type. It does a good job of just giving you information so that you can better make a decision on your Basenji's health without trying to sell you anything.

    If you have any interest in increasing the quality of your pets' diet, please take a look at this site :)

    I currently feed my bengals Wysong. I haven't seen Wysong mentioned at all here yet… probably cuz it's not available in stores everywhere, I ahve to have it shipped to me. Anyways, wysong.net is another good resource for health. They focus on education.

    I was just on the dogfoodproject.com site and noticed that wysong is doing a recall on some of their brands. You may want to check it out and see if the food you're using has been recalled…

    An interesting site but I did notice that some of the products have not been updated in a long time. Once you see a food you like on this site it would be a good idea to doublecheck the ingredients on the product's website as they may have changed since originally being posted.

    I would find out what he scared of or what he dislikes about the car. Is it the car itself, the sensation of being closed in, the movement when the car is being driven? Then work on whatever the problem is, with food. As for food, I use raw duck and vegetables. And I hand-feed all meals, so I never have a problem with not eating/partially eating. I would also recommend hand-feeding for anyone who does have a dog with food issues. Shredded chicken is good (as long as he doesn't have any reactions). But that and some kibble isn't a balanced meal. You may wish to look into a vitamin supplement, specifically something that has a focus on omega 3 (since chicken is high in omega 6), Vitamin C & the B vitamins (because if all he's eating is chicken and kibble, where is his source of vitamin C and the B vitamins?), zinc & copper (same reasons). All the best. EDIT: I just realized this thread is a year old and was bumped by what is almost certainly a bot.

    I had a somewhat similar experience. Joey had a seizure which I correlate to taking Simparica. He looked terrible so took him to the vet when the first seizure happened and he was late Stage 2. Put him on Royal Canin kidney kibble and Hills kidney wet food and 4 years later he has only had 1 more seizure and his kidney values have remained constant. I will believe your homemade version is most likely better if you have the correct proportions. All the best to your Bs! Joey will be 15 in November.

    8 mos old is still on Royal Canine medium size puppy as recommended by vet. Very interested in how you change up their food. Glad to hear that because I would like to change him from chicken based to something else as adult. Had always been advised not to keep changing food as it was hard on their system. Breeder advised to use high protein and fat dog food (60% protein, 30% fat). What is your opinion on this? I am starting to add 1/2 tsp coconut oil daily to dog food for winter feeding. Advised it had ingredients similar to mother's milk. What say you about this?
