He likes it, and readily eats it.
The only problem is that my Yorkie, Wendell, has a chicken allergy, which causes diarrhea and vomiting. I give my dog a combination of dry and canned "Taste of the Wild" Pacific Stream formula. The foster dog is interested in it, but the kibble is just too big for his little mouth. He takes a piece, carries it around and then drops it.
I feed them separately, and can continue that practice, but in the interest of making my morning routine a little easier, I have a question.
Does anyone know of a kibble that is the same size as the Nutro Small Breed Adult, but that does not contain any chicken? |
My mom's standard poodle is allergic to everything, and is on Natural Balance Duck & Potato - the kibbles aren't as small, but Tinky easily fits them into her mouth (which she's not supposed to do). If that won't work, could you soften the kibble a bit with water before hand so he can get it better? Best of luck
