That's good to know about the protein.  I saw a few that I wanted to try on that site that scores the food 6 stars and down, but most of it says not suitable for puppies because of the high protein. I will definatly look at the ones you recommended at the store tomorrow. ( I found a pet store that pretty much carries most of the top quality foods.)
I think as far as the chicken broth I will just stick with the nutrical.
How long should I wait before the switch?
Cause at the rate she eats it will be a long time before the 5 pound bag is finished. 
Thank you for the info. |
Oh i forgot she is a puppy.. i would looking into Natural Balance's Puppy food... i honestly think it is the best thing out there (right now) and feed her puppy food until she is a year. While i dont' THINK they make a grain free puppy food their food is still great.. and they might have an all stages food that is grain free which should be ok.
I'd wait about a week before you switch... let her settle in... she WILL pick out all the new food and leave her old food
just the way it goes and since you are switching from a pretty low quality food to a very high quality food it is normal to see diarrhea for 3-7 days... her body is cleansing out all the "crap".. and keep in mind if they have diarrhea for that long it is normal to see small amounts of blood in the poop... their intestines are being agitated and so a small amount is to be expected... if there is A LOT... take her to the vet but i dont' see it being a problem.
