It is recommended to adopt a 7-day gradual method when switching diets: the ratio of old and new food is 1:3 on days 1-2, adjust to 1:1 on days 3-4, and transition to a new recipe on days 5-7. Observe the bowel movement and adjust the food ratio if soft stool occurs.
The scientifically proportioned homemade food can not only avoid the additive problems of commercial food, but also be flexibly adjusted according to the individual needs of the dog. However, attention should be paid to regular physical examinations and special nutritional supplements if necessary.
