Btw, the kibble size is not peasized anymore (grain-free anyway). They recently changed. It is larger. Almost Acana size.
You can see a photo of it here:

Yeah... the Canine Caviar kibble are just a tiny bit bigger.
Its really almost hard to tell... its more like the old kibble were
more of an eraser shape and the new kibble are slightly flattened out.
The Acana was too big for Riley. I used to have to Cut that kibble.
I don't have to cut the new shaped Canine Caviar.

I think the flatter shaped kibble are better.
The older kibble was easier for pups to just gulp down rather than chew.

I have attached a picture of the older kibble on the top
row and the new kibble on the bottom row. This is a view
from over top... For some reason my iPad won't let me post
2 photos in one reply. So I will post a photo of more of a
Sideview in the next reply box.

Here is a photo of the Old shaped Canine Caviar kibble in top and the
New shaped Canine Caviar on the bottom. More of a side view.

I'd like to find one, dependable, dry food that would work...I'm crossing my fingers and hoping this will be the one.

good luck to you, i hope the canine caviar works for your little one..
i am one of those that went thru a lot of foods to find the "right" one ..

i am going to give this food a try for Jasmin. DH and I want to switch her to grain free since she started having eye boogers and itchy skin. I found a store that is only a couple of miles away that carries this brand.

I found a store about 35 miles from here and I might give it a try.

Also, are there any issues with tear stains on this food? I was thinking of getting the Wilderness Grain Free dry food.

My vet had said and I have read that unless there are immediate signs of intolerance, 3-4 months is a good time frame to see short-term as well as long-term effects. This is why I didn't feed anything except the wild ocean for 3 months before switching to open sky.

There is a Lot of good info. On this site:

Did Riley 'get worse' before she got better when you switched or did her issues just start disappearing?

No.... he started getting better as soon as we switched.

The first picture is Before... the second picture is only 7-days After
switching and the third picture was a couple of days ago.
He hasn't had any ear or skin issues since switching on Aug. 2nd.

Wow...that is exactly what I'm wishing for Miss Moo. She is doing o.k. with the routine she is on now, she's more comfortable and symptom free than she has been for a long time, but I know it isn't totally right just yet so I'm still on my mission to get it right for her.

I Know The Feeling!!

The new size is not anything to worry about! I use to have to cut Acana in 1/2 as well and with the CC Peanut eats it just fine. It is like Theresa explained.. They took the small size and smashed it.
