Beautiful pups (and children, of course).
I am introducing a new food to my allergy prone and hypothyroid Chihuahua, and wondered if anyone had heard of it? The brand name is Wenaewe. It claims to be free of: corn, dairy, soy, artificial colors, artificial flavors, wheat, chemical preservatives, by-products, and GM products. The primary ingredient is organic uruguayan beef. It contains flaxseed and millet (not so good, really, for hypothyroidism). Here's the website: www.wenaewe.com.uy Anyone heard of this, good or bad? I'll be checking the dog boards, as well, and will report back if I find anything interesting. Thanks!

Hi Dottye~
I never heard of that particular food.... so I have no idea if it is good or bad. The breeder we met has recommended: Wellness Chicken Soup for the Puppy Lovers Soul Natural Balance California Natural and cautions to avoid foods that contain wheat, eggs, corn, soy, sugar & dyes. DogtorJ, a veterinarian with celiac disease, has pet food recommendations on his site: http://www.dogtorj.net/id39.html Cara

I think the strangest thing is that I didn't know this about this breed going in, but I think maybe it was meant to be . And how weird is it that two breeds with known gluten intolerance are FROM IRELAND??? (the Irish Setter is another known for wheat sensitivity) Perhaps the Wheaten Terrier should become the official mascot for Celiac Disease Awareness...lol. No doggie treats from drive through banking... I guess. I still haven't talked with DogtorJ...I need to get to that one of these days! Cara
