Switching to a new dog food I have had my smokie (yorkie) for two weeks. He is three months old. When I brought him home the breeder gave me some food. I have been feeding him the food for the last two weeks. Yesterday I started gradually switching him over to a new dog food (Organix puppy food). Tonight he started getting loose stool. I am doing 75% old food and 25% new food. Is this common in puppies when switching to a new food?
What should I do at this point? Continue with the switch or go back to the old food. I read on-line to add a little canned pumpkin to his food and that will help with the diarrhea. I will have to switch pretty soon because I don't have alot of the food left from the breeder.
Thanks...... |
