Default diet shift

Dogs whose diet shift a lot can have problems. When I switched my dogs over
recently from Pedigree to ProPlan, one of them had diarrhea for a couple of
days, because of the transition.


That's why it's advised to take about 10 days to make the transition. 1/4 new
food, 3/4 old food for 3 days. Then 1/2 and 1/2 for 3 days. Then 3/4 and 1/4
for 3 days.
