I need some more help with this sorry!
I started my two 3.5 year olds on Burns Chicken & Rice, but they started losing a lot of weight on it, I have now switched them to Simpsons Premium Adult Sensitive Lamb and Potato which has 45% meat content compared to Burns 20%. Burns was also "Chicken Meal" whereas Simpson seems to be proper meat?
Simpsons:
Lamb (min 45% - Including 22% Dried Lamb, 19% Deboned Lamb, Lamb Fat) Potato (min 26%) Beet Pulp, Brewers Yeast, Lamb Gravy, Dried Egg, Salmon Oil, Minerals, Linseeds, Vitamins, Yucca Extract, Cranberries, Nucleotides
They are slowly gaining weight (and will eat anything tbh!), but now they are pooping for England! seriously I picked up 5 poops off Lilly the other morning on a 1.5hour walk!
and they poops they do are whoppers
Could this be down to the higher meat content? will it settle down? I understood if they were pooping it all out then that meant the food was full of fillers, but on paper the simpsons looks better than the burns for protein?
They are on 70g each twice a day, Simpsons recommends 95g-200g per day for dogs 5-15kg (mine are 11.5kg and 12.5kg), so I'm at the lower end of their scale as I am also using some of the Burns up as training treats, but not that much!
Should I look to swap them again? If so what will keep weight on them and not come out the other end so much?
Thank you
