I can't find the site when I switched foods.. but maybe she just doesn't like the taste of it. Max used to just eat a bit with Royal Canin but as soon as I switched he now scarfs down anything in front of him. I am feeding Innova EVO which I would only suggest if your dog is over 1 year and gets a lot of exercise. Anyways this is what you should do:
Days 1-3: 80% old 20% new
Days 4-6: 60% old 40% new
Days 7-9: 40% old 60% new
Days 10-12: 80% old 20% new
Day 13: 100% new
Maybe you could put cottage cheese on it to encourage her to eat it? If you tell me how much she eats of her current food and how much she needs per day (according to the bag label or vet) I would be happy to do all the calculations for you on how much to feed of each.
