Which one?
« on: August 20, 2011, 09:27:08 AM »
I am going to try Oscar on a new food. Currently he is on RC Cocker but we want to shift those pounds. I am thinking either Burns High Oats or Barking Heads Fat Dog Slim. Can anyone give me any preferences to which one?
Enjoying this journey !!

RC do 'light' versions of some of their food - Alice is a spayed middle-aged lady but her weight is easily manageable on RC Medium Light - not sure if that helps you in any way or not!

Good Luck with finding the right solution for Oscar  :D

Some dogs stay slim on any Burns food. Before I switched to raw feeding it was the best kibble for William, who had various skin and tummy problems plus had put weight on when on Arden Grange Light  :o. But Burns suited him really well. He was slim and had good skin and no tummy troubles. I know that others on here have posted in the past that their dogs lost weight and got skinny on Burns, so it's worth considering.

If you have a look on their website and contact them they're usually helpful and will send you some samples of the different varieties so you can see if Oscar likes it.
