CANIDAE PROBLEMS!? Please HELP I switched my 5 lb 12 month old Yorkie (I adopted him after his owner had neglected him) to Canidae All Life Stages dry food and wet food since he will not touch his food unless it has wet food. He is the pickiest dog I've ever come across and won't eat any snacks. Suprisingly, he will eat the Canidae combination of wet/dry food, but it is hard to get him to eat right away. I usually have to microwave the food a big (he prefers it warm). It usually takes him an hour or so to start eating after I've prepared it for him. Sometimes I have to hand feed him to get him interested! From time to time, he gets distracted ant comes back and forth to his food. Does anyone have this problem?!
Lastly and most importantly. I noticed that the kibbles for the All Life Stages dry food are pretty big. I noticed that he rarely chews the kibbles but just swallows them with his wet food. I noticed in his stool that the kibbles are coming out whole! Maybe this is why he's reluctant to eat his food because it looks painful for him to poop (mind you, he's only 4.5 lbs). Do any Canidae lovers notice this in their Yorkies' stool, or is it just me?! Lastly, is this painful and problematic for him to be pooping whole kibbles? I thought Canidae was so superior because of their easily digestible ingredients? Does canidae make smaller kibble for smaller breed dogs or should I switch to Solid Gold "Just a Wee Bit" Small Breed puppy kibble? PLEASE HELP YT!! |
