I'll heed the advice! We have other food too but I don't want to switch him up. We have supreme source which seems mostly fruit and vegetable but chicken also. And we have Purina pro plan all stages
My gf got the first as a sample, and the pro plan was what breeder fed so we started him on that before switching to the brewers ingredients lol.
What shall I do!?

Also if it states 100% satisfaction guaranteed ... worth a shot to say not happy with ingredients and dog remaining hungry...
Let's see how that goes :) thanks all!

Chewy is AWESOME!! I guarantee they will just have u donate the left over food and help guide you to find s better food. Generally go with grain free for eb's. My girl has a chicken and all potatoe allergy. I've been feeding both of mine Taste of the Wild - pine forest edition for at least 6 months. It's venison and lamb. But am not switching bc they both started getting hotspots. And my girl NEVER gets hot spots. Just got Zignature Salmon. Zignature is grain, chicken and potato free. Transitioning them over now- do we'll see.

Sometimes you'll find the right food - for now, and still have to end up changing.

Update, Chewy is refunding and recommended Wellness. I mentioned Fromm, whoever the agent was said they have a friend who has an EB and he's on Fromm and loves it.

I think Fromm, based on the links/all of your personal experiences, seems like a safe and successful choice. I'll be purchasing today and making the swap gradually. Thanks all!

Let me ask, to those saying 3 cups a day, does that factor in if you give him treats? We give him a kong with pb and kibble just a puppy size Kong as something to do during the day... he loves it but is it too much?
Solid poops! Haha

I fed mine 3 cups not including treats. You can adjust a by based on your bulldog if you feel he is getting too much food total in the day. My 2 were pudgier as puppies and thinned out a bit (don't get me wrong, they're body type is still compact meatball) as they got older.

New development, I feed him his third meal before bed but then he's waking up at two thirty three am...
Plan To switch to lunches, not late nights. Anyone else had this happen?

He's four months, he goes out an hour after eating... he just never wants to poop then... only at three in the morning.

Feeding earlier is the new plan. He has kind of stabilized at 27 lbs for the week since new food so that's a plus lol
