Avoderm or Natural Balance? Dog food?
- admin in category: Dog food products
So I had the dogs eating Avoderm because I work at a petstore that sells it, and I might as well get a discount for it. My dogs are socialized learners majority of the time, and they’ll eat whatever everyone is eating, and whenever. My sisters’ dogs eat Natural Balance and whenever we feed them together.. my dogs won’t eat.
Now I just bought a bag of Natural Balance, but I really like how the Avoderm is working for their coat. Now I need opinions..
Should I just keep them on the Avoderm?
or
Just switch them to Natural Balance and make them happy?
They’re both natural foods, and both good brands…
They love Natural Balance.. and seeem way happier when they get it..
but I love what avoderm does to their coat.

YOU’RE IN THE DRIVER SEAT HERE. WHICH DO YOU LIKE BEST? If all things are equal, cost and nutrition and you like Avoderm, then use the Avoderm. If the dogs don’t like Natural Balance, then why try to fed it?

If your dogs like the food they are on, and you like what you see, why switch?
Avoderm is healthy, as well as Nat Balance
I know I use Nutro, and I love the way my dog (and cat) look–coat is extremely shiny, and hardly any shedding–which is always nice when you have hardwood floors! LOL I like that it is also all natural, human grade ingredients…and I like that the company has been around for 85 years.
So, stick with what works for you.
Why did you buy the Nat balance, if you were happy with the food you had?
However, if you DO want to switch, be sure to do it slowly.it takes 6 days to switch from one food to another first 2 days 75% OLD food, only 25% new next 2 days 50/50 and the following 2 days, 75% NEW food, and 25% old..
This usually take about 3 day supply of your old food.
Good luck!
There are so many choices out there!
It sounds like you already know what you are looking for in a food.
I posted the web-sites for Nutro and their Holistic version ULTRA below, if you want any information Let us iknow what you decide!

neither natural balance is over priced for what it is, and avoderm really has no extra benefits then any other premium dog food out there seriously the fatty acids in avocado have no more benefit then say a food with salmon meal so why pay the extra cost ?
now if you wanna spend your money and get some thing truly exceptional then check out nutro ultra they sell it in the majority of all pet stores matter of fact here is there website it is about the same price as natural balance but it has
flax seed oil
fish oil
chicken
salmon
lamb
tomatoes
brown rice
cranberry’s
so why pay the same amount of money for less ?

Natural Balance, The thing I don’t like about Avoderm are all the grains they put in there food. It’s cheep filler.
Between the two Natural Balance is the better.
