If you don't detect any changes in their digestion over the transition period, you can start feeding the new food exclusively. However, the protein in Orijen is a lot more than RC (9% higher). So I would really watch your pups stools. My dogs loved eating Orijen, but it was too rich for them and their stools became very soft and even runny sometimes. Good Luck! |
Thanks! Another quick question: What other changes can I expect when switching to Orijen? Will he get less itchy?
