Please go to these sites and read about the importance of human grade dog food and other supplements to make your dog the best it can be. I am sorry to say I have had my 12 year old Yorkie on Science Diet (even I/d) all of her life and she has battled stomach problems (vomiting blood and having bloody mucusy stools) and allergy all of her life until now. Teatment each time was antibiotics and steroids (until next time). I just switched to Eagle Pack and I'm giving her nzymes and oxy drops as well. I have been looking for a Holistic Vet as well, but there are none within 50 miles.

Lilli was getting cyst. We had two removed during teeth cleaning, but then another popped up on her head and this one was removed by using oxy drops.

She likes the food, I get it at dogfooddirect.com and it is sent to me free of shipping and tsx.

I used SD dog food years ago with my Dobe's until we started running into some of the same problems you mentioned.

We switched over to Solid-Gold dog food wich is a Holistic feed Co. and it realy help a lot.

Currently we are 100% natural feeders (No Kibble)combined with the rite suppliments. And our dogs have never been healthier the differents in the too feeding programs Kibble vs Natural are like night & day.
