So I guess we have to keep looking.

oh no=/ that's tough...have you tried crumbling some freeze dried raw or anything on top?
Mimi is the picky one here, she just took a sniff & turned her nose up on it loll. She gets THK for breakfast & premade NV raw for dinner, so she's off kibble for now.

I've tried adding bits of chicken, and sprinkling broth over it... but neither one of mine were having it. They'd eat the chicken and leave the kibble. Or they'd lick the broth off of the kibble and walk away.

Lol, they are VERY frustrating. But, I just foud out that we have a new pet store (petsense) coming to our town, and they carry a frand called AvoDerm. From what I've read so far its a pretty good brand. So I guess we'll be trying this next.

Fingers crossed.

I also got a sample from my sweet friend Theresa, Sheldon is a very picky eater and it took him about a week to finally eat the kibble.
He went 4 to 5 days eating less than 1/4 cup but I put my foot down and decided to keep on trying. I took away treats also, had to hide them from my husband and kids to avoid any mistakes.
See, Sheldon would eat something and then he would stop liking it and I would add something to the kibble, change the food, sprinkle veggies, etc.
Is not his fault he got picky, I am fully responsible for making him that way lol so this time he was probably thinking, yeah, my mom is going to give me something else if I don't eat...errrrrrr...WRONG! Hahahahahha

He has been eating 1/2 cup a day for the last couple of days. Good luck!

Riley tried the grain free CC "Open Sky" tonight and I don't know what is in this stuff that
he likes so much but he gobbled it down immediately PLAIN!!

I'll be out in Virginia on Sunday where they sell it so I'm going to
buy a bag of the wild ocean and a bag of the open sky!!

I'm so excited!!

. LOL!!

Sheldonsmom · 09-20-2012, 03:07 AM

Awesome! Is the kibble the same size as the old one? Just curious about it since I saw someone posted on their Facebook page about the kibble being bigger or something like that.
T, I am waiting for your friend to answer me before I buy the food on,one and pay the $10 shipping.

The kibble was about the same size... maybe even a teeny weeny bit smaller...
Yeah Deanna and I both posted on their FB page.... I think the new kibble is a teeny weeny bit bigger, but Still Smaller than the Acana kibble...

I'll see Syndee on Sunday, late afternoon and I can ask for ya!! Or you may want to give her a ring at her shop. Not sure how much she is on FB. She should be there 10 - 7 today... (703) 272-8767

Doesn't Avoderm have a recall right now? I know that Petco sells Avoderm (maybe Petsmart does too?). I would definitely choose something else over Avoderm. Maybe someone else on here feeds it and can give a different perspective.

Yes, it does! Another member told me a few days ago, and I opted not to go with it... A different YT member (mimimomo) was kind enough to send me some different samples and my two are head over heals in love with the Pulsar fish formula, and Stella & Chewy's freeze dried dinners... I think we've found our food

Oh, and thanks so much for the heads up!!

They only sell the Huge 12lb bags on Mr Chewy's...
CC says you can refrigerate their food up to 6-months....?!

I ordered the big 12lb bag and started giving it away so that it
wouldn't go stale... it would take Riley Forever to eat it... LOL!!
I found 3 places in VA that sell the smaller bags... so I am going
to go get some, this weekend.

Wow! That is a lot! Even for my 2 boys it would be too much.
I'll have to go and look at the store I have near me. I think I saw it there. Might try it in the boys rotation!
