33 Best Foods for a Boxer with a Sensitive Tummy

Pro Plan Sensitive Skin and Stomach has worked great for my boxers over the years. One of them had serious intestinal problems when we adopted her. We tried a number of foods, including some of the very expensive specialty foods, but the Pro Plan food was the only one that worked for her.

I use Chappie dry and wet mixed. He is not good if I swap to something else. Also bowls up in the air to aid digestion.

Bil JAC sensitive stomach. Bil JAC is the only dog food which cooks all ingredients separate with the proper temperature which makes it easier to digest so no gas no upset stomach. It’s so gentle it’s the only food that dissolves in water other food just swell causing an upset belly or food allergies. Since it’s mostly meat they eat less and is smaller. I recommend it to all my customers with food allergies and their dogs don’t ich anymore and their coats grew back.

I’ve been dealing with this issue for months now. We finally got ours on prescription ‘Pro Plan gastrointestinal’ dry. Just about 1/2 cup 5 times a day. With a little water in it. Works wonders. If yours is still throwing up a little, the doctor can give nausea meds. I give every 6 hrs and then an hour later feed so the meds have time to keep the acids down. Works wonders for ours

My 13 year old boxer had started with GI upsets. I switched her over to Hill Science Diet Adult Sensitive Stomach & Skin formula. Thought I’d try this first then if that didn’t resolve her stomach issues I’d switch to Prescription Hills ID. To my surprise it worked wonders. But I did find it was best to feed her a cup in the morning and a cup at dinner that way she had food in her stomach. It resolved our problems and even made her fur healthy. I would definitely give it a try.

Bil jac. It’s cooked at a lower temperature so it smells more appetizing and breaks down easier so it’s easier to digest. The shelf life isn’t as long because of that but they do little market to keep the price down.
