Some say that a rotation diet is good for pets. Others say that changing foods will make your pet more picky. Here's a link about rotation feeding: Rotation Feeding for Pets | petMD

You have to use your best judgement because each dog is different. If dry food works best for you, maybe you can switch proteins and/or brands with each new bag. If she likes Taste of the Wild, maybe go from High Prairie to Southwest Canyon to Pacific Stream back to High Prairie, etc. If you do stick with one brand, you won't have to worry so much about digestive issues.

I've found that a rotation diet really helps with keeping mine interested & consistent in mealtime. Good luck!!
This is exactly what our menu is...for now loll. I don't know if I made them picky or if they trained me to give them these foods. Alls I know is that they enjoy their meals so so much & their poopies are tiny, nice & firm. Currently, their protein in rotation for fresh treats are cage free egg whites pan fried in coconut oil, Momo leaves a pool of saliva on the floor loll.
