So I did notice his stool looked a brownish-red then but it turn to bloody-red. The Vet put him on Science Diet W/D and Saturday I was suppose to mix in his new dry with it, which is Acana. He ate fine then with his new food. Today has been a different story. He would not touch the dry food at all, only the wet and hardly much of that this morning. I had put the wet in the middle and the dry around. Someone told me that they mix the dry with the wet, so I tried that tonight and he hardly touched it and picked out a few of the dry. I tried the Acana dry, but he would touch it. I added warm water and still wouldn't touch it.
So then I gave him a buffet of his new food Acana, Natural Balance Ultra, Natural Variety’s Prairie and a scoop of the wet Science Diet W/D. I only gave him a small amount of each dry. I have a small sample bag of the Natural Balance Ultra and Natural Variety Prairie. He gulped down the wet and left the dry.
Any ideas or suggestions are appreciated. | oh poor thing, hope he feels better soon. well , i think maybe you are trying too many different foods at once. i would just stick with the W/D the vet gave you and and mix in a few pieces of the Acana at each meal till he gets used to it. Try warming up the food for a about 5 seconds in the microwave, sometimes that makes it more appealing... good luck |
