Hey all!
So last time I was about an active, Taco had hurt his paw a little bit, and I wanted to take the time to make the switch in his dog food. Well, I never did, until I pulled the trigger on some Fromms Pork and Peas. I got a 30lb bag, and slowly transitioned over a week with the end bag of his Natures Recipe Easy Digest Salmon and Sweet Potato. His stools were fine, but he was shedding like CRAZY and developing some itchy spots on his paws.
I finished up the last of his old food this evening, and I'm monitoring how he does. It was about 7 days of transfer, I started with the 75% and 25% mix, and slowly worked from there. Tomorrow will be his first day on all fromms P&P.
My question is (yes, there is one) his stools are now a little loose, like soft serve with some occasional logs in there, and they have changed from darker brown to a much lighter color (like a light brown.) His stomach was obviously upset the 2nd day, but he's his regular self. I know that the food switch can take a while to see effects, so I want to ride out the bag, and probably order another one before it's out. We are still getting the occasional gas, but we got that with the old food...
I'm fairly sure the answer is keep on keeping on, but just wanted to hear some opinions!
