[nagdu] food switch update and my plan of action

[Rebecca Ilniski]

Hi all.  Here's my plan and where I'm going from here.  Today after I 
got home Zeb had diarrhea and this was definitely an gradual switch and 
we haven't even finished the switch.  I was going to try and give it 
some time but since it got worse I figure there was no point in doing 
so. Needless to say I've never had a gradual food switch go this badly 
so I've decided to just order some more of the Taste of the Wild Sierra 
mountain with dry roasted lamb which he'd been eating and just have the 
fed exe guy put it by my door while I'm at work.  I put that in the 
instructions.  I'll let my neighbor be on the look out for it.  I can't 
imagine why a 30 lb bag of dog food would disappear seeing as no one in 
the building has a dog except me. Now in order to firm up stool it's 
brown rice and low fat cottage cheese.  I hesitate to use pumpkin 
because there was some in the nature's recipe food that I was attempting 
to switch to.  As far as Zeb's relieving goes, there have been no 
accidents and the diarrhea seems to only occur during his once a day 
bowel movement.  I talked to the folks at mrchewy.com and asked them if 
it would hurt if I just gave the food when I got it as long as the stool 
was firm and they said that should work out fine.  So that's the latest 
update.  I thank you all for your responses and will respond to them but 
wanted to send out an update.
