I use a small cat dish saucer, and just cover the bottom with one layer of the kibble. If the canned is left over in the fridge, I microwave the dry/canned mix for 6 seconds. Stir it up again and it is ready to go. This is the only way I get Gracie to eat dry food. If she does not eat it all, I know I gave her too much or she had too many treats earlier in the day. By 4 months, Gracie started not eating her lunch so she is fed only twice daily. I also give her a snack of Yogurt ( a couple of tablespoons) before she goes to bed (vanilla, low fat and sweetened with honey or sugar).
Thank you so much I had already gave Bailey his breakfast before I had read this but I did the exact same thing I gave Bailey 1/4 cup of kibble and about 2-3 tablespoons of can food and I refridged the rest.......I then cleaned his bowl and put some dry kibble which I may pick up because my trainer doesn't recommend me to leave dry kibble out while doing a scheduled feeding so I think I will go and pick it up so now I am going to see how he does on the can and dry mixture (poop wise).....Hope it all works well Thanks again for your post
