I'm assuming it's the canned SO that Milford is getting, which is at least better than the dry. Is he perhaps "scarf-n-barfing"? How long after he eats does he ralph, and is it mostly food that he vomits, or is it mostly liquid, and if so, is it foamy? Does he only get fed twice a day? He might benefit from smaller, more frequent feedings if that's the case (like at least 3 or 4), or a snack before bed.

Yes it's the canned one, we don't think he eats it fast, it takes him 3 times longer than our dog to eat. He barfs up food about 30 mins -1 hour later. He gets fed 2-3 times per day (1/2 can per day), and eats a bit of hard food inbetween.



What were his peeing problems, and what was he eating then?
He has Urinary tract infections, he was eating only hard food Nutro.



Medi-cal S/O, while not the worst, is really not the best food either, and is way overpriced for what you get:
Ingredients-
Water Sufficient for Processing, Chicken, Chicken Liver, Pork Liver, Pork By-Products, Corn Flour, Fish Oil, Powdered Cellulose, Dried Egg, Vegetable Oil....
The corn flour and powdered cellulose (aka sawdust) are completely unnecessary, and it contains a little too much liver for my liking. There is nothing magical about this food preventing urinary tract issues, other than the fact that it's a wet food. You can do better feeding a non-prescription grain-free canned food like Wellness, Nature's Variety Instinct, By Nature Organics, Innova Evo 95%, etc.[/QUOTE]
