After weeks of online research and reading vet books, we came to one simple conclusion – change Moab’s diet. Could our high priced, “top-of-the-line” dog food be the problem?

We decided to follow Five Leaf’s suggested meal plan. After a few weeks of homemade meals and Dog Greens we started to see a huge increase in Moab’s energy levels.

Moab has more energy than ever and routinely hikes miles on end with us in the mountains of Colorado. It’s back to tail chasing and playing in the snow!

For those of you who are interested…. Moab’s diet consists of brown rice, sweet potatoes, carrots, celery, green beans, chicken, hard boiled eggs or tofu, Tums (for calcium), Flax seed oil, and Dog Greens (vitamins). Yogurt for a snack. His current protein intake is around 18% (high BV proteins) which we are raising slowly to a target of 20-24%. His diet has 1.2 part calcium to 1 part phosphorus. We try to keep the carb to protein ratio around 2:1 or 3:1. Total calories are 1560. Moab is 12 years old, 55 lbs, and is active.

Thank you Five Leaf.
