Transitioning from Puppy food to Adult food
So we're starting our 10 month old rat terrier mix on his adult food - we spent about a week gradually introducing him to his new food by mixing it with his puppy food and he was seemingly doing okay.
We're now at the point of giving him all of his adult food and he's clearly got an upset stomach/loose stool. Last night was his first full meal of his new food. We switched from Natural Balance (duck, brown rice) to a grain-free Merrick brand. According to Dog Food Advisor, it's a big upgrade.
We think it's because he's now fully on just the adult food but I was wondering how long he may have to deal with an upset stomach before being accustomed to the food and getting back to normal. Or how long should we give him on this food before considering other brands. He was perfectly healthy before, so I'm just curious about the process
