Day 3 1/3 cup of food,AM feeding I take out 25 kibble, replace with 25 new food, PM feeding repeat AM, I continue this until he is eating only the new food. It depends on how many kibbles 1/3 cup holds, that determines how many kibbles I take out and how many new kibbles I replace. Transition should be over a period of 7 to 10 days so as to not up set their digestive systems. I do a 10 day transition, 7 days is advised. If you feed wet canned food take out 1/2 TSP old old replace with 1/2 TSP new food and build up every day until they are eating just the new food. |
Thank You so much for that suggestion I had no idea that I had to transition her over to a new food.
