A bland diet would involve cooking for Lance or perhaps trying a commercially prepared food that has less ingredients, such as California Natural. This is a one protein, one carb, one fat plus necessary vitamins and nutrients. I believe there are three dry kibble formulas, which would include Chicken and Rice, Lamb and Rice, and, Herring and Sweet Potato. I just placed an order for some at my place of employment. I also picked up a few sample bags of Taste of the Wild, Pacific Stream to try on Zack. Speaking of Zack, vote for him at:
