My boys have sensitive stomachs, so I do slow food transitions. When I fed CC I mixed it with their old food for a week or 2. As for feeding amounts, I feed based on calories in the food. For a high calorie food (like CC) I was giving my 6lb dog a total of 1/4 cup a day and my 12lb 1/2 cup a day. They also get a bit of dehydrated food in the am and canned in the pm with their kibble. When they were eating a lower calorie food (taste of the wild), the 6lb got about 1/3 cup a day, and the 12lb got about 2/3 cup. Since they are small, it's super easy to tell if they are gaining or losing weight, so I use that as a guideline. |
