OMG it worked !
Warmed bone broth over redbarn canned stew!! first thing Karma has eaten in over 36 hours and she ate half a can! She had to fast prior to surgery and then was in the hospital for over 13 hours. Has been home now for almost 15, but I still couldn’t get her to eat until this combination and I had offered her everything in my house that was safe for a dog to eat and then had more people deliver additional options.
Of course, she made me scoop it out of the bowl into my hand and eat it out of my hands, which was a very gross feeling, but I would do anything for this dog and I am so happy.
So grateful for my village !
Two of my colleagues are covering some of my clients so that my business doesn’t have to stop completely. One of my friends/ clients is bringing me extra supplies for Karma, anither friend made and delivered cookies for me, and another friend friend is bringing me an air mattress, so that I don’t have to keep sleeping on the floor. My hubby checks on me regularly and helps when he doesn’t have to be at work. 💜
The community I have here means the world to me. Thank you all for your support during this hard time.
And as a dog owner and dog trainer, I try and keep up-to-date on canine nutrition, and the best options in kibble. For the past month I have been testing out switching my dogs over to the red barn, whole grain beef and fish recipes. The nutrients to value ratio is good and if you want to learn more I recommend using the non-biased third-party dogfoodadvisor.com. All that to said after this experience, I am convinced. It’s a five star all ages, all breed dog food and the only thing my sweet baby wanted to eat while she feels terrible.
