Moving to natural food is one of the best upgrades you can make — but the switch itself deserves patience. This 10-day plan avoids upset stomachs.
Days 1–3: mostly the old food
Serve roughly 75% old food and 25% Whiskerwood. Watch stools and energy — both should stay steady. If anything loosens, hold at this ratio for two extra days.
Days 4–7: meet in the middle
Move to a 50/50 split. Most dogs get visibly excited about meals at this stage, which is a good sign the new recipe agrees with them.
Days 8–10: nearly there
Shift to 75% new food, then 100%. Keep treats consistent during the switch so you can tell exactly what agrees with your dog.
Slow transitions respect the gut. Ten patient days now means years of happy mealtimes.
