The smoothest transition from one dog food to another occurs when the foods are mixed together. This process should usually take about 10 days to 4 weeks depending on the sensitive of your dog. It is always a good idea to have a 1/2 bag of the dogs current food when you start looking for a new health food to rotate. I also use oatmeal as a buffer. Oatmeal is easier to digest then rice and most of the time you don't have to cook it. If your pet will not eat it raw, cooking it usually does the trick. When dogs refuse to eat their old food or you have run out of the old food before the transition is complete, you can also feed 3 to 4 smaller feedings of the new food with warm water to ease the transition. Day 1 & 2 10% new food to 90 % old food Day 3& 4 20% new food to 80% old food Day 5& 6 30% new food to 70 % old food Day 7&8 40% new food to 60 % old food Day 8 & 10 50 % new food to 50% old food
We feed in rotation. My Dogs & Bird get a different protein each day. Shed less Poop less Have less Illness My bird has less tumors and more strength. My Parakeet eats Egg, Chicken, Sweet Potato, Beef, Lettuce. No Seeds only natural pellets. WATER Tap water is not clean water. We filter the water we drink. You pet also deserves the cleanest water. I have seen rashes that you can't get rid of disappear after the animal is off tap water for 30 days or more.
