Plus, when I am gone, I cant expect anyone else to cook for them. So I switched back to dog food....I have tried several good brands, Merrick, Innova, Canidae, Blue, Wellness,. I always added a little bit of people food thinking this would make the transition easier. Unfortunately all they do is pick out the people food. If I dont put people food in it, they dont touch it and then are up and restless a night, because, I guess they are hungry. I have wasted so much money...its pathetic. I have also tried different dry foods and finally seem to find one they tolerate. I give them the dry in the morning and they eat a little of it. I feel the wet food about 5 each day. The thing is when one of them is sick, I feed them boiled chicken, broth and rice and they completely clean their plates. I might as well switch back to people food. Its just that I made pertty simple food and dont think they were gettin all that they needed Im so frustrated. |
I made the same mistake last year with my chihuahuas, in the end i stopped cooking their food and just left kibble down, they left it for a short while but when they realsied they wernt getting anything else they finally ate the kibble and its back to normal now.
