changing from puppy to adult food

• changing from puppy to adult food Jenna Ashcroft Posted : 6/8/2006 3:09:52 PM I have two small dogs, one 10 months and one 5 months. The older is due to change over to adult food and I've been trying to get him to eat it, but there's just no way. I've separated them while feeding for a while, but he wasn't eating it at all. The vet suggested of course, to mix in the puppy food for a while to ease him into it, but all he ate was the puppy kibble. I've even tried adding rice and mincemeat to the adult food to make it better, but again, he sorts it out and only eats the treats. Any ideas? He hasn;t had a decent meal in about 3 days.     The whole, he'll eat if he's hungry enough...not working [&o] LIKE 5 REPLIES 148 VIEWS LAST POST LOVEUKAYKAY Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• beth82 Posted : 6/12/2006 12:57:11 PM Why not just let him eat puppy food for now?  It won't hurt anything to let him stay on that for a few months. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Melissa Camiel Posted : 6/12/2006 2:09:43 PM What type of food do you feed them?? Maybe he just doesn't like the taste of the adult formula for that brand. You may have to try another brand and see if he likes it better. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
