Here is my situation. My 5 month old Mango (3 lb) is the pickiest eater you can imagine. I really, really tried to keep her on the
Canidae ALS dry kibble because I see on these forums that so many of you recommend it. However, after weeks of trying all 3 flavors, she still had to be coaxed with a huge variety of add-ons - like wet food, liver crumbled, baby food coating.... you name it, I tried it. Even then, she just picked at it, never really finishing a meal.
A few days ago I got a sample of the
Evanger's Pheasant & Brown Rice Dry (also All Life Stages, like Canidae). Mango nibbled at it, which means she liked it. At the same feed store, it was recommended to me to sprinkle a touch of grated
Natural Balance Turkey roll onto the kibble. VOILA!!! for the first time in 3 months, Mango gobbles up her food. This is a huge relief for me, because every single meal has been a struggle of coaxing her to eat. (By the way, I did try the same sprinkle on the Canidae, but she would not touch it.) I also like the fact that the Evanger's kibble is smaller than the Canidae.
So, my question is this - Is the Evanger's as healthy and as good for the coat, stomach, pooping, etc as the Canidae. At the site dogfoodanalysis.com, it is given a 5 Star premium rating, same as the Canidae. Also, is the sprinkle of the Natural Balance Turkey roll detrimental in any way?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated....
