You can give a few big spoonfuls. I reccomend keeping a few cans of this on hand, as it will help with any constipation/diarrhea from anxiety from the transition.

You can also use some pumpkin to help your new dog's tummy with the food transition. Its going to take a few weeks for her stools to normalize - don't worry - this is normal!

OK - as for food - no offense to LoveFla - but please don't feed Science Diet. if you want to feed kibble, Candidae, Wellness, California Naturals, Innova, Evo, Nature's Logic, Orijen and Solid Gold are really high quality kibbles...

Regarding her teeth, I would have her get a full dental cleaning at the vet's and then make sure you provide her with lots of chewy toys and brush her teeth regularly.

Keep us up to date on the transition!
Thanks I'm going to look into the food right now... as for her teeth I am going to make an appointment for her teeth as soon as I find out about the pregnancy issue... She doesnt chew on any bones so guess we are going to have brush them everyday! Thanks for your advice on the food and teeth!
