Canidae

[chattiesmom]

I have been feeding Canidae All Life Stages to my gang for over 2 years with terrific success. Pregnant mommies and young pups are fed Nutro Ultra Puppy food -- but by the time the pups are ready to go to forever homes between 12 - 16 weeks they are on the Canidae. We have beautiful coats, good eaters, and active happy Yorkies here on the farm. Even the elderly Boxer who has a super sensitive stomach eats the Canidae with no problems.

I would try to phase in the food over a week or so, but if you feed dry kibble you will find that your furkids will pick out what they like and leave the rest.

Ditto. Both my girls did fine. I also put them on Nature's Variety Raw at the same time. They always have kibble in their bowl and once a day, they get NV Raw.

Abby, who will be 16 weeks old on Friday is pooping more now that I changed her food I honestly thought it would be the opposite. Daisy's habits haven't really changed. Both have firm stool, so that's good. I'm going to keep track today of exactly how many times Abby goes, but it seems like 4 or 5 times a day and it was only twice. Is that odd?

Thankfully I wasn't dealing with any allergies when I decided to switch to Canidae. I was reading how superior Canidae was, and also how many people had problems with RC here on YT, and I was having a major "poop eating" problem......so I switched.
It been 24 hours now, and no sign of any stomach upset, he's been his usual active self, and I even saw him snatch a few kibble from his bowl a couple times today , so I'll take that as a good sign.
Oh, and the poop has been untouched today.....my fingers are crossed
