 Curious about dog food
Hello everyone:
I'm new to this forum and just wanted to see if anyone can help me out. Not to long ago I got a yorkie named max who is a year and half years old. Now the previous owner was feeding him just pedigree canned wet food which to me that was a red flag because he would feed him half the can one day and the other half the next. With friends and family owning dogs I've heard them say how wet dog food is bad and how it's not good for the dogs stomach. So being a new yorkie owner I had started leaning him away from pedigree and got him the small breed dry food brand of Buffalo, but I started to mix it with Cesar wetfood since I was trying to lean him away and he's been eating it with no problem but I want to get him to eat just plain dry food which I tried giving him just the Buffalo alone and he would not touch it, he is a picky eater and I think it's because of the kibble even though it's small kibbles. I had taken him over my aunts house who has a morkie that was purchased years ago in the same pet store that my dog was purchased from and the morkie had some of his dry food in the bowl which my dog ate with no problem. So I'm not sure if I should go back to the food that was given to him from the pet store since it's really small and it is what he was brought up with. It's just that the food isn't a name brand that I've heard of nor I know what's in it, but my aunts dogs had been eating it ever since he was a puppy and purchased from them. So it can't be that bad since it's what the store feeds the dogs prior to selling the puppies. Any recommendations or advice on how to go about just giving him dry food since I've been told it's best for their digestive system and their stool. |
