Instructions
Feed your dog the new food as treats, while still using the old brand for regular feedings. Make the new food a reward for your dog while doing tricks or during other times when it may expect a treat. Do this for one week, or for as little as two days if your dog takes to the new food quickly.
Give your dog a mixture of the new and old food on Days 1 through 3: 75 percent old food and 25 percent new food. Use measuring cups to make your portions as exact as possible.
Give your dog 50 percent old food and 50 percent new food for each feeding on Days 4 through 6.
Give your dog 25 percent old food and 75 percent new food for each feeding on Days 7 through 9.
Give your dog 100 percent new food starting on Day 10.
