[nagdu] Food Change

[Tracy Carcione]

Yeah, that's sounds OK.  I always put a bit of warm water in the food. 
It's just what I was taught, many moons ago.

>> Hello all,
>> I've been doing quite a bit of research on the various foods, and
>> science diet seems to have a lot of fillers. About a week or so ago, I
>> purchased a new bag of food for her because she is almost out of
>> science diet for adults. I got high prary canine formula with roasted
>> bison and venison by taste of the wild. It is a granegrain free food
>> so it is pretty high quality. I've been transitioning her to the new
>> food slowly, and the bright side is that she seems to love it.
>> However, I'm beginning to think she is having a little difficulty
>> going potty, and I was wondering if this is something I should be
>> worried about? I'm sure it does take a while for her to adjust and
>> it's only been about 5 or so days.
>> Best, Hannah
