Frequent Pooping?

[dab_20]

Most of the time the dogs don't even eat what is recommended on the bag. Some eat more, some eat less. Delta, when she ate kibble, ate a whole cup less!

But I think when he said ethical reasons... he just means that P&G haven't been a very reputable company and just because of that, some people don't want to contribute money to their company. I really hope they do keep the kibbles the same... just watch out for adverse reactions to certain bags. A lot of times companies will make tiny adjustments in their kibble and sometimes dogs can't even handle that... and the company won't tell anyone. I would recommend cutting the ingredients off the bag and taking them every time you buy a new bag so you can compare. Even moving an ingredient up and one back can make a huge problem for some dogs.

Cal Nat is limited ingredients especially for allergies, so I hope it helps! Even though it has some grains... they are the better end of grains to give and not things like corn or the such... And I understand about the Evo... SUPER expensive. >.>

Yeah, I know it's just a recommendation. Sam will eat the whole bag at once if he could! hehe I just fill Molli's bowl and she eats until she's full and they both have good maintained weight.

Ohhh, I see. I think I will do that, just to make sure the ingredients don't change.

Well, people usually recommend you rotate brands as they are less likely to become allergic if they have more variety... but the fact is that dogs can still have adverse reactions to switching around in good dog foods. I know quite a few dogs had to get off Natural Balance just because of a TINY little switch around in the ingredients.

And also, every dog is different. I know Honda didn't even need any transition time. That dog could eat anything and be fine. >.> And she did have quite a few times where she ate stuff she shouldn't have... and well, the wrappers came out in her firm poop. Lol We called it her christmas poo. hahahaha These adverse reactions could have just been because they didn't have a 'transition' time and so they had diarrhea or something... I'm not really sure. But once you change the food with your dogs enough times, I think they become use to the transitions and don't need a transition time anymore.

And even if the ingredients do change... just make sure they are good changes and not bad... and maybe do a transition time with the last bag if your dogs aren't used to changing so they don't get upset tummies.
