Hi all
As some of you may remember we have had a few problems since we rescued our cocker Bob. One ongoing problem is his hyper activity, we have been given lots of good advice (working with a lady from APDT) but there is still a problem. It has been suggested that the protein in James Welbeloved is too high for Bob and that we should try a lower protein food.
What difference in the protein levels will make a difference or is it trial and error? We much prefer dry food and Bob loves JWB and his coat is so glossy now (he was very dull and dry when we got him). JWB has a protein level of 20%, we are thinking of trying Burns (I have found a local supplier and have used samples as sent by the website -Bob liked the food) which has a protein level of 18.5% - will this make a difference? I really don't understand the protein levels in relation to hyper activity!
I am trying Bob on Naturediet (wet food) at the moment, which is only 10% protein, I am told I will see a change in him if it is the protein, almost immediately. So far has been 2 days and no change.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
