4 patties a day is getting up there. I have two Yorkies, so I have to make my choices to be economical, but make sure they're healthy at the same time.
The 4.4 lbs bags of Acana I get are also around $22 CAD but they last quite a long time. I never get bags larger than that to make sure the kibble stays fresh. My two are also super picky with food. They'll sometimes sniff dry kibble and walk away. But I keep them on a strict feeding schedule and take them for their daily walks. After each morning and afternoon walk, they get fed their meals - but I soak the kibble in water. They gobble it right up!
With the Acana brand, they didn't like certain flavours. Right now, they love the Heritage - Small Breed flavour: https://www.petland.ca/products/copy...ble-in-3-sizes
Maybe you can ask for a sample of that and feed them when they're really hungry.  Like us, food tastes better when they're really hungry. haha.. |
Yeah, Stella and Chewy's is pricey here in the US. I just saw 15 oz. for $28.50 on chewy.com. After taxes, that could easily be $30. You're right about trying other flavors of Acana--good suggestion! And like I said, some stores have a return policy where you can get your money back if the dog doesn't like the food. That's something to look into as well.
