Also dont be surprised if your pup wont touch the new food for awhile, if she was being fed a certain kind she may take awhile to like the taste of the new food, just keep trying.  .. you may have to try a few different brands before you find one she will eat willingly. You can contact a few companies and ask them to send you free samples, so that way you dont pay a ton of money on food she wont eat.
Congrats on your new pup!!  |
High protein diets are ideal for dogs, including puppies. Dogs are carnivores, so they are designed to digest high amounts of meat, which is protein, and have no nutritional need for grains. For this reason, a high protein diet provides optimal nutrition.
Unless your dog has liver, pancreas or kidney disease, too much protein isn't an issue.
TOTW, as you mentioned is a nice food. It also seems to be a food even picky eaters love!!
Getting samples is definitely the way to go.
A great money saver there.
