"Phoenix" - Larsen Lytle vom Klatolklin

Male - German Shepherd - born August 2007. Working in schutzhund. This guy is very active and energetic. He was on super premium kibble. Had been having problems with copraphagia (stool eating) to the point he would hunt them out. Drove me NUTS. His coat had always looked good, but sometimes had looser stools. After Vetraceuticals, his stools seemed a bit better. Also he stopped being as obsessive about eating stools as he used to be. 4 months after adding Vetraceuticals I switched this dog to a raw food diet and kept him on the Vetraceuticals and he looks as good as ever. With the raw diet, there is always a concern about balancing the dogs meals over time. I feel better knowing that I'm adding things like the Omega's, and kelp/alfalfa etc, and I LOVE that the formula is rotated through a 3 month process so there is less chance of over supplementing...again, playing on the principle of balance over time. Phoenix is doing super well on Vetraceuticals, and he loves it. He licks the powder off the bottom of the bowl.
