I know that some may question my practice , but here goes nothing. I feed my pups raw, but I also free feed kibble. Their kibble currently consists of a combination of between 3-4 different kibbles: TOTW pacific NW, VeRUS, Natural instinct, and sometimes Pinnacle.
I started this mixing about 4 months ago because we were running out of Evo red and I did not want to re-purchase another bag as they were sold to PG, which I was not happy with. So I picked up some sample bags to try out on my two pups to find out which would be there favorite; and placed 3-4 different kibbles down at one time during the first week.
Well....needless to say they started nibbling on All of them equally. I thought from everything that I had read that they would have digestive upset....but it did not happen. Confused....I left All varieties down and kept refilling each day to see how it would affect their GI tract. It did not upset their stomachs or their intestinal tract at all. So I continue on with the practice, to this day.
The one thing I have found out through this process, is that sometimes things work differently for different pups.....and that finding the particular niche that works for yours, might require experimentation.
Good luck......
