All dogs are different, some will be ok w/mashups & some will not. It really comes down to how your dog does on it.
Mine all did well on the individual foods by itself, so I just thought I'd mashup the honest kitchen & weruva. When I say well, their poopies are nicely formed & not soft at all. I don't think they should only have ONE food, I want my guys to eat a variety of different foods so they can get vital nutrients from them.
Mine have been eating grain free kibble ever since they were pups for both meals & 2 of them had struvite crystals. The most important factor was to liquefy the diet. So I had to incorporate canned food for 1 meal (since canned food is higher in fat & protein) & I moisten the kibble w/hot water for the other. Momo just had his re-check & he's struvite crystal free.
I've also tried premade raw, frozen & freeze dried. Mimi & Turbo did well on it, but Momo & Princess couldn't handle the higher fat content. Their poopie was soft. So it really comes down to how your individual dog does on the food. Pincess had colitis b4, so she needs to be on a strict low fat, high fiber diet. That's why I chose honest kitchen. I really wanted to avoid potatoes bc she's also yeasty (had skin cytology done to confirm this), but I figured THK uses organic human grade ingredients & sweet potato was better than potato loll. That's why I LOVE CC, no potatoes!
