So I posted this in an already-started forum, but it was from 2007 so I figured I would just post it as a personal blog and see if any of you people could help me out...
Has anyone ever tried the Beneful healthy weight food? Since Winston isn't living with me it's hard for me to control what he eats and doesn't eat... Hence why my boyfriends mom (Winston's been staying with my boyfriend and his parents for now) has been feeding Winston a FULL HOT DOG every morning for breakfast... which I had no idea.. Until she said she switched him to 3/4 of a turkey dog because HER vet said that 1 hot dog for Winston every morning is way more than Winston should be having in an entire day... You can imagine my anger/frustration/confusion as to why she was feeding him that but also an understanding as to why he shot up about 7 pounds in weight since he moved in there... I asked that she not feed him any turkey dogs in the morning and just give him dry dog food (I had him on Purina Puppy Chow when he moved in, he had just turned 1and I was about to switch him to the regular Purina dog chow)... because once I move out and Winston is obviously coming with me, he will not be getting any hot dogs of any sort in the morning, he will go back to the diet that he was on... but when I asked her to switch him to dog food in the morning she got somewhat defensive.. GRRR... anyways.. Since they own an 8 year old Pyrenees, they feed the Pyrenees (Sam) senior dog food which they have now been feeding WINSTON (Winston's not even 2!!!!!!!) but they had both on weight-maintenance food for a little while.. well since I didn't want Winston to be on senior dog food, I bought the Beneful healthy weight and my boyfriends mom said that her vet said that stuff isn't good and "doesn't work..." I didn't get a large bag of it because I wanted to try it out and see how he liked it first... Anyone try it? Any results? I might do the green bean thing but i don't know if my boyfriends parents are willing to feed him green beans all the time... Even though they give him more scraps than 20 corgis could eat >:o grrrr.
Sorry for the rant. I'm just currently very frustrated/upset that i haven't been able to move out yet and live with my pup :(
