Special Dog Food Needs

Recommended Posts

I have a ten-year-old Border Collie who is allergic to brewer's yeast.  This ingredient, unfortunately, is present in at least 90% of commercially prepared dog foods, including the super premium brands and the ones slated for "sensitive" diets.

I've been using Burns, but the distributor who was nearest to us died tragically, and her business has not been taken over by anyone else.  The other Burns distributor recommended by Burns in the UK is far enough away that the shipping costs make the food hideously expensive for us.

Does anyone have any suggestions of a brand that they've used that works well and which, to their knowledge, does NOT contain brewer's yeast?  I've tried home cooked and raw diets, but Maggie is a very difficult eater, and croquettes seem to work the best for her in the long run.

Thanks.

Thanks for the info. Burns had sent me the info on Lifestyles and I did contact them, but the shipping charges from there to here really increase the price of the food.

I may have no choice, however, if I can't find anything else that works for us.

What would make it affordable would be if I could find someone in this area who would also like to order from them, then we could gang up our quantities to make the shipping charges more reasonable.

Honestly, I know she's odd, but my dog hates raw food and particularly raw meaty bones.  I have tried several times over the years, and it just winds up getting thrown away.  She'll go days without eating, then will pick at it, but leave most of it.  I finally gave up.
