Hello all,
We feed Wally Fromm Duck and Potato. Recently he has been very hesitant to eat his food, even though he's hungry (he eats any other treat or hotdog). Is it possible he's sick of his food? Should we consider changing it to another Fromm product? I heard you can change from Fromm to Fromm without much difficulty.
Thanks for any advice!

Yes! Jake scarfs down anything..but my Dena dog definitely gets tired of the sme food. Yes..you can switch up the Fromm..but just to be safe I'd do half and half a couple days.

Yes, definately. Matilda refused to eat any of her food. So that is why we moved to raw.

when you think about it kibble must be boring so yes they do get bored of eating the same taste,texture ,i raw feed so plenty of variety,try raw meat for breakfast and kibble for supper perhaps but unwise to mix it ,confuse the beggar lol,karen

You can switch between the different flavours of the Fromm 4* range at any time and won't need to do any gradual introduction. It is actually recommended that you switch between the protein sources so they don't develop an allergy. Maybe he is just getting a little tired of that flavour so you could maybe try the beef, salmon, surf n turf etc etc next time??

Thanks everyone. We will pick up a new flavor this week and give it a try. We will try the Surf and Turf I think.

Nope, it is more of a problem with me than it is Vegas, I thought he would get bored. He has been on NVI Salmon for a year and a half, I thought I needed to change it up, he did horrible on the other proteins, so back to Salmon. He eats every last little kibble. I do change his snacks and treats around with fresh fruits and veggies.

Yup, i bought a 1 1/2 years old bully and her diet is optima. I switch her to Go Natural Endurance Grain Free but she always had goopy gunk in her eyes. So I switched to barf diet and now she's doing great.

Einstein just recently started being "picky" like the last month or so. So we are thinking about changing some things up. Just got on the site to look at all the food suggestions. Haven't been on in awhile...what was I thinking. I've missed so much!!

I'm also having a problem with my bully not eating like he used to. My Jax is 5 months old and has been on Blue Buffalo lamb and oatmeal since we got him before Christmas when he was 2 months old. He has always scarfed down his meals, but in the last week he barely eats his bowl of food. At first I thought that maybe he was getting sick or something, but he would go and try to eat our other dog's food (yorkies who eat Iams) or the cat food. So he is definitely not sick and is hungry, but it sounds like he may be sick of the flavor of his food.

He has also been having tiny bits of chicken and a tablespoon of either cottage cheese or yogurt mixed into his food since he was three months. He has always loved it. Now I am not sure what to do.
