<DIV>Jane,</DIV>
<DIV>We switched our dogs...Rudy the Basset and Ivy the 11 1/2 yr old
Golden...to Innova about 4 months ago. I am firmly convinced it has
made a big difference in their health. Months ago I wrote asking for
Drooler's help and suggestions about Rudy's front leg situation. It is
hard to really tell what has helped but there is a definite improvement.
It is odd how we switched to Innova from Iams. We were in the store
checking out foods planning a switch when a woman came down the row with her
Golden named Henry. Henry was the same age as Ivy and looked so much
better. I asked her what she fed him. She lead me to the Innova and
said she started Henry on it when her Vet told her it was the food they used at
Michigan State Veterinary School especially for the cancer patients. (I
have no proof of this but took her on her word) She also adds chicken
broth and yogurt. Ivy recently had a big surgery on two masses that she
had above her shoulder low on the neck. They started bleeding and smelled
terrible. Having managed a surgeon's office I recognized the odor and
situation right away. Previous to this the Vet was reluctant to operated
on the growths because Ivy was 11 1/2 and had recently had several
strokes. The drainage put us in a no choice position. Two weeks ago
Monday Ivy had the surgery. She came through it perfectly and we were able
to bring her home that night! The incision was 5" long. The sutures were
removed this past Monday. The incision is well healed and looks
great. I really feel the Innova prepared her for this and has made a big
difference in her over all health. We also give them Innova Health Bar for
treats. I know that this information is not a scientific study and should
be viewed that way but we are really sold on the product. I switched the
kids over to it slowly and they had no side effects at all. I may be
making more of it than I should but Rudy's ears are staying cleaner and there is
no anal gland situation. I wish I knew the woman's name who recommended
Innova. I feel she helped prepare Ivy for the surgery and probably
extended her life. I owe her a big thank you!!! As an after thought,
we also switched our 4 cats to the Innova food and have seen major improvements
there too. No hairball's!!!!!! 2 of the girls are Siamese and 1 is a
long haired gal....no hairball's or gaking up since switching! Works for
me. Hope this helps Jane.</DIV>
