Transitioning to a new pet food can be beneficial, but it needs to be a smooth process to avoid digestive upsets. At The Hungry Pet Food and Supplies, we offer guidance on introducing new pet food brands safely, available in-person or via our online store at thehungrypuppy.com.
Begin by gradually mixing the new food with the old, increasing the new food's proportion over a 7-10 day period. This slow transition helps your pet's digestive system adapt without stress.
Monitor your pet for any signs of food intolerance, such as changes in stool, vomiting, or skin reactions. If these occur, consult your veterinarian to rule out allergies or other issues.
When switching to a brand like Primal Pet Foods, consider the nutritional ingredients and specific needs of your pet. Raw and minimally processed foods may require extra care regarding storage and handling to maintain their quality.
Supporting local, by shopping with us, you get expert advice, quality products, and peace of mind knowing you're contributing to a family-owned business invested in your pet's health.
