we use canidae and it has been good for us, stools are fine and he eats it but we mix in a teaspoon of low fat plain yogurt because he got used to it and is spoiled now...we mix a lot into the food to make it different for him as well so he likes it but i would say stick to just kibble till she is transitioned and doing good on her new food. I love the fact that ive learned about all the variations we can do with our dogs food at this forum, things i never would have thought of otherwise.
