Would you switch her to Wellness and hope she enjoys it for years to come or just stick it out with RC? I realize that Wellness faired much better than RC in the dog food ratings and that is why I chose it specifically. (Blue Buffalo did not send samples - and they just had a recall recently...so not so sure about them). What would you do....keep your pup on RC even though she seems not to enjoy it but is doing well on it as far as poops etc is concerned or see how she does on Wellness. What are my chances she will get tired of Wellness in the months to come?? Wondering what you all think???
Thanks. |
As you already have said....RC isn't one of the better foods. I also had a very picky eater...tried several different kibbles only to donate them to the shelter. We got our little Lillie a year after Sadie...of course she was on puppy kibble and Sadie would eat the puppies food...not enough nutrients for an adult so I switched to Canidae all stages....then when they changed their formula they didn't seem to like it anymore so I tried Merricks grammies pot pie...they LOVE IT! this is what I have had them on for 4 yrs now. I also us wellness 95% chicken as a topper...has been working well for us..
