| Smallest kibble I've been feeding my 4-pounder Natural Balance Potato and Duck Small Bites. She loved it and I'm pleased with it too since it is the smallest kibble I've ever seen. However, lately she seems to be losing interest I need to find an alternative quality kibble with the smallest size. Any suggestions? TIA! Btw, I have tried giving the Natural Balance Ultra Premium Small Bites and she hated it. The Solid Gold Hundchen Flocken (puppy) kibble is double/triple the size of Natural Balance Small bites.

| What about Solid Gold Wee Bit? I'm not sure the size of the other solid gold but this one is pretty small. Smaller than a bead. I'm not sure that its a puppy food though..

| I don't know how small NB is but we feed Nature's Variety Instinct and the kibble size is fairly small. In my eyes, it's TINY because we were on Wellness Core and that kibble is huge. If you have any pet boutiques in your area that carry the premium foods, they should have sample bags you can take home.

| I was going to say you could also try a different flavor of Natural Balance, but I checked their website and they only have the one you're feeding, and the ultra premium your baby didn't like. That's a bummer, you would think they'd have it in more than just two flavors. I don't have any suggestions as I just feed my pup the regular size kibble, but good luck, there has to be something out there.

| The breeder where I got my little furbutt Orion was feeding him Bil Jac. So of course, I had to pick up a bag of Bil Jac food for him. In any case, the Bil Jac puppy kibble is extremely small and easy to chew (it almost looks like gerbil/hamster food).

| They do get tired of the same thing all the time. Right now I'm mixing two different kibbles. I'm feeding Innova Small bites, which is a pretty small kibble. It's a good food, but not as much protein as the EVO that Innova makes. And, I'm feeding Wellness Small Breed, it has the smallest kibble I've ever seen, and they love it.
