Hello! My bully is currently on his last bit of food. I ordered a new bag from pet flow yesterday, so i'm not sure if it will be here before he runs out of his current bag. What are some foods i could food him for dinner tonight and possibly into tomorrow? Rice? I don't know if i want to buy ANOTHER bag of dog food when i just purchased him a huge one of Earth Born Holistic. Advice/opinions are appreciated!

Thanks!

The food you ordered is the same as he was eating?? If so you could give him boiled hamburger with rice or potatoes (veggies) until you get the new food...If its new food that he never ate I would get another small bag of old food b/c you need to slow transistion.

i agree with [MENTION=4246]ChanelnBrutus[/MENTION] to do hamburger n rice or potatoes till the food comes in. we have others that have had to do that before waiting on food to come. let us know how it goes.

Actually I found out by complete accident that you can do a switch with bland diet... I just mixed half new food with bland diet for a day and never had the poops! It was in this exact same situation, I went to the feed store only to find they were out of my food! So I had to get another type, used the bland diet in-between, and not a squirt to be found!
