Absolutely no offence taken.

We have tried everything and veggy was a suggestion that we took and worked. Not all dogs have to be veggies. I have had dogs in my life and none were veggies and none had skin problems like the Rotties. I had Cockels b4 the Rotties and they did fine with skin and general well-being with regular dog food, jus lost them to cancer...sigh!

If I go back through the years, the mongrels that we had then, we cooked fresh food for them religiously. I remembered buying tripe and such from the beef butcher @ the market, sort them out in to the week's meals and the dogs would have 'home cooked' with rice meals. I never had any such mind boggling problems that i experience today.

I also do not dispute that dogs are meat eaters, but they are actually omniverous. A make over in the diet should be consulted and advised by the Vet accordingly. It's not a totally DIY solution and not all Vets will advise to this program.

Hence, my contribution to this forum, as I m tired to be buying expensive drugs to treat problems when I actually have an alternative solution, that are beneficial and natural, of which I was not aware of.
