As far a hard-chewing things, he has a chicken treat that is the consistency of an animal cracker and he gets several a day. They are very hard and crunchy. Sometimes he gets raw carrots the other hard chew option is his dried sweet potato chew. Aside from that, if I do not get the kibble into his diet I am relying on tooth brushing.
With regard to calcium, he loves yogurt and he gets non-fat greek plain yogurt each morning. It is likely not enough - and I would have to discuss that with our vet and potentially supplement there.
I understand they can be sensitive to diet changes, however to a certain degree I find it hard to believe that is the problem because I change out his proteins and veggies on the home-cooked front pretty regularly and he has never had a digestive problem.
I will try to integrate a smaller amount of kibble with his home cooked food when we try again next week and see if that makes a difference...
