I guess I need to find out how old the OP's baby is.....I was under the impression that it was young still and so the kibble was just hard for it to eat so it didn't like it. If that's true, I just figured she could soak it so that making the transition to dry later would be easier....if she's wanting to do that anyway. |
I preferred canned. All dog food is over processed but canned is less so. Kibble cleans teeth very little unless it is specifically made for that. It breaks before it can do much cleaning. Whatever you feed, it is important to brush regularly. Canned is pretty much the same consistency as homecooked. A kibble that would clean the teeth is SD T/D (not recommending it
).
The research done on this is questionable and hopefully better studies will come out but I would stiill feed homecooked to Ellie.
