Default B.G. (Before Grain, by Merrick)

Anyone tried it? I am introducing it into Callie's diet, started yesterday. She seems to like it so far, favoring it over her old kibble (yay!) that I have it mixed with. I have had a heck of a time trying to get Callie to eat her food. She is now 5 mo old, the breeder sent her on Royal Canin Baby Dog, I transitioned her to Royal Canin Puppy Dog, which she didn't want much to do with.

Anyway, the BG seems to be very nutritious, I am impressed so far, the kibble are just big for her, so it takes her a while to munch them. Being the NICU nurse I am, I'm afraid she is burning more calories than consuming (common in preemie human babies) because it takes her so long to crunch the kibbles. I want the crunchiness so it benefits her dentition. Callie weighs 2.5lbs (yay! she's still gaining!) She ate just the kibbles last night, and this morning I mixed in a bit of pheasant with the kibbles. (I found this awesome natural petfood store here in Omaha - Nature Dog - GREAT stuff!) She mostly mowed down the pheasant and ate maybe 10 kibbles.

Anyone have experience with this food? Website Before Grain. Anyone have suggestions for the big kibbles?
