switching food I have decided to switch Callie'ss dog food so I email wellness and they sent me three samples of the foods I was looking at and I wasn't sure how to go about seeing which one she liked so I took three small paper plates and wrote the name of the food I was putting on the plate and then I put 10 pieces of each sample on each plate and set them over by her dish. Well Callie is normally a picker so she is free feed and I expected her to take a few bites of each and that at the end of the day I would count how many out a the 10 she ate of each, well that didnt happen. She ate all of the wellness core as soon as she tried one piece! So I tried it again the next day and again she loved the wellness core and eventually ate it all. I am very excited because it is getting her on a higher star food much higher then what she was on and I wasn't sure she was going to like another food. I was just kind of wondering how yall pick and try a new food when you want to switch foods? |
I usually do the same thing you did and then the one they ate the most of, I buy a small bag and try it out for a week or so to make sure they really do like it and it agrees with them. If so, then I can buy a bigger bag. |
I've done something similar with toys. For food I pick what I want to feed her, put it in a dish, put it on the floor, and tel her to eat. lol. She loves food though. But even if she didn't, that's what I would do. |
I am pretty sure Tibbe would eat the one that smelled best to him first. I don't think he cares as much about actual flavor in his dog food as he does the smell. When I have given him a taste test, he goes for liver over beef or chicken, things like that. He has no food palate whatsoever and will eat any food offered him except some citrus. |
Presto will eat anything ;) but i have to watch out for his allergies! |
