There are different reasons why you will need to change your pet's food. It may be upon the recommendation of your vet, or you simply just wanted to explore other food types and brands. No matter what the reason is, changing your pet's meal plan is not usually as plain and simple as you think it is. It requires a lot of thought and consideration as changes like this may have an impact on your dog's health.
It is never okay to abruptly change your pet's food and it has to be done gradually. Below is a sample strategy that you can use when changing your pet's food:
On the first day, your pet's meal shall be composed of at least 1/4 of the new food and the rest shall be the old food.
On the second day, try to increase the amount of the new food to at least 1/2 of your pet's food.
On day three, the new food shall make 3/4 of your pet's meal.
On day four, you can give your pet the new food in full.
