Why Feed This Way?

Tillie @ Olympia | Cheesecake
33% Kibble — Farmina
33% Freeze-Dried — Nulo
33% Wet food — Weruva
• The Honest Kitchen Beef Bone Broth as needed
• Herbsmith Microflora and Mud Bay Pollock Oil as needed
• Feeds rotationally
Why Feed This Way?
"Kibble is the most cost effective way, but my cat is prone to stress-based urinary crystals so hydration is a must with beef broth. The Freeze-Dried and the pollock oil is mostly for extra soft cuddles!"
Why Feed This Way?
"Kallea has a pretty sensitive system as an Aussie so a raw diet has been the most beneficial diet for her. I give her raw meaty bones (such as the necks) for her dental health and Ultra Oil for her skin and coat."

Why Feed This Way?
"To increase their variety or micronutrients and keep them from being picky. They have the softest, shiniest coats and require minimal grooming because their skin and coats are so healthy."
DOGS
Ella @ Lake Oswego | Odin

10% Air-dried — Red Barn
10% Gently Cooked — Grandma Lucy's 3 Bears
• Open Farm Bone Broth and Goat Milk as needed
• Mud Bay Pollock Oil, Lifeline Kelp, Connectin Hip and Joint as needed
• Feeds rotationally
Why Feed This Way?
"He is a Newfoundland so I worry about his joint health a lot. I look for food additions that will help keep his joints healthy and happy. He eats a lot so I chose a calorie dense food that I trust so he doesn't have a ton of kibble while still getting all the nutrients he needs. He loves having the Grandma Lucy's on top and the Air-Dried Red Barn is either given on top of in a West Paw topple."
CATS

10% Freeze-Dried — Stella & Chewy's Dinner Morsels

• Feeds rotationally
Why Feed This Way?
"Kibble is easy to feed with a busy schedule, but Tabaxi gets moisture from daily wet food and extra nutrients from freeze-dried raw. Plus hairball and dental supplements for a happy and healthy cat!"

• Feeds rotationally
Why Feed This Way?
"My little Chiweenie is very picky! She does not like to eat the same things twice. This has made it very difficult to get food for her, so what I have ended up doing is giving her a trail mix of Air-Dried/Freeze-Dried/Kibble for breakfast and then switching up the flavor of wet food she gets for dinner. So far this has been working!"
DOGS
Jess @ Lakeway | Poppy
100% Raw Frozen — Tucker's, rotating flavors

Why Feed This Way?
"Poppy is an extremely picky dog, who unfortunately suffers from a few digestive issues due to low cortisol levels. The brands I feed allow for rotational feeding which gives us endless variety and the supplements target the issues caused by her low cortisol levels as well as helping her seasonal allergies. Seems like every season is allergy season in the PNW!"
