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
