Hi! I am new to this forum and have found the information to be very informative and valuable. I have a 4 year old Bichon Shih Tzu named Sasha and lately she has been fussy about her food.
The vet switched her about 6 months ago to Hill's Prescription T/D (small bites) for her teeth. What I found was that she was swallowing the kibble in whole and not chewing, which was counterproductive. I figured that she didn't like the food but was hungry so she would just swallow it and be done!
I made the mistake of switching her to Science Diet Nature's Best at the recommendation of a clerk at the vet's office. BAD MISTAKE! It did not sit well with her at all and her stool became very loose. Now she is on home made boiled rice and chicken with some T/D bites in there until I can get her to something that will be good for her. I am thinking about trying Wellness Core Reduced Fat to keep her weight in check.
I am open to any recommendations. Glad to be part of the group! :smile::smile:
