| How often do you switch foods? I have noticed in many different posts that even those of us who do not home cook switch their dogs foods occasionally. I am wondering how many of you switch? How often do you switch? How many brands do you switch between?

Donating YT 10K Club Member | I only switched from RC to Wellness once...to see if eliminating corn in Reese's diet would improve his teary eyes.

| I switch every bag. I only have Cali, so one bag lasts a good while. I will switch between Merricks, Wellness, Canidae, Nature's Variety, etc.

| I switch every time Kimchee finishes one bag of food (usually lasts a few months). I give 3 differnt brands (Wellness, Solid Gold and Orijen) at at time. I only switch different flavors within these 3 brands.

| Thats what I was thinking of doing, finding two or three brands and just switching the flavors around on those, I hate to switch between to many brands and cause any stomach upset.

| I only switch foods when I am thoroughly convinced that the food I am switching TO is better than the one that I am currently feeding. It has been over two years since I started feeding Canidae and am well pleased with the results. |
