My female German Sheppard just turned 13 years old. I have always fed Formula One dry food but in the last few months, it seems that the food hurts her going down her throat. I recently watered it down with chicken broth and it seemed to solve the problem. But, now she's not so interested in it. She usually weighed 70+ pounds but now weights 62. Should I just feed her the Formula One wet food?

Misty,our 13 year old mixed breed (mutt) now weighs 49 pounds. She used to weigh 56 pounds but has lost 7 pounds in 8 months. We feed her 3 cups of Purina rice and lamb a day. It is easier for her to digest than other dog foods. She is not an active dog. Should we increase her feeding amount or change her to the Senior brand? Thank you for your concerns.

My dog Joe is fairly old, 15 years now. He used to be the dominant dog in the house, but his old age has been catching up with him. The other dogs seem to bully him out of his turn at the food bin and he is getting skinner. We try to get the other dogs away or isolate him. Is there anything else we can do?
