Smeraglia's Doodle Forum

We have the most adorable schnoodle puppy who is about to celebrate his six month birthday from the Lola litter. He is on Vital Essentials raw freeze dried and doing wonderfully. He did not like Canidae and so we switched to Orijen Puppy which is a fabulous food but it did not suit him. I think it was too rich. After much research we opted for a raw food diet and we are glad we did.
Hope this helps.
