Sandstorms switch to blue buffalo

[KarenCurtis]

I posted this a few minutes ago and it was lost, so if I double post, I'm sorry.
Sandstorm is doing fine on the switch from nutro to blue. Because he ate most of the old nutro I had set aside to put on top of the blue for a gradual switch, the switch was not so gradual!! But he is fine, and now I am not so hesitant to switch it up again down the road. I will stick with the blue buffalo, he is on lamb and brown rice, but maybe eventually he would like other types, like chicken or fish. I feel good about switching, as I think the blue is a better food. It is also a bit more expensive, but worth it. After reading what other people write about feeding, I do think that a variety of food is good for dogs.
Years ago I think people (at least I did) thought that you had to stick to one type of food, but I don't think that way now. And Sandstorm thanks you!!

Hope Sandstorm does well, I feed my dogs the Blue Buffalo Chicken and Brown Rice, they seem to be doing well on it. I had them on the Blue puppy food also and the switch was no big deal, I do not think they even noticed. What was strange to me is that they require such a little bit of food. They have had good vet reports so far.

I liked feeding Pierre Blue Buffalo a long time ago, but he was so weird. He would pick out the 'life source bits' and refused to eat them! He would toss them next to the bowl and ignore them. It was funny, but I felt like we needed to change to ensure he was getting all of his nutritional needs met.

I'm glad to hear the switch has gone well. I think it stresses us out more than the pups!

That is so funny!!! At first Sandstorm did this too, but now he is eating those bits, what a riot!

Sandstorm only gets 2 cups a day, the vet said he is a perfect weight at 33 lbs, 18 inches. It is strange that they seem to get so little food!

KarenCurtis leave the bits

Prince did the same thing with blue buffalo with pieces next to his bowl like some kind of specialist. we ultimately made a switch and he has loved the brand we chose. faulks

2 cups a day is "so little food"!!! Wow!!!
My dogs get 1/2- 2/3 cups a day. Anymore and they'll be fat fat fat!!! Tell Sandstorm he should enjoy his 2 cups, because mine get far far less.

I will tell him this! It also takes him about 3 seconds to eat it.
