I completed the slow change over to California Naturals about 2 weeks ago now, the Herring and Sweet Potato Dry formula, and everyone seems to like it and although I've noticed larger poops, they are all solid save for poor Windy. This happened once before with her and Wellness, she is having looser (partially solid) stools and has a big problem with poop sticking to her fur and back feet. It was so bad (and stinky) last night I gave her a little half bath in the bathroom sink. I know it makes her just as grossed out as me, she is a meticulous groomer.
I am wondering if any of you know of something I can give her or add to the food or water (best would be something I can administer directly to her) to aid with digestion and maybe help to solidify her poo. I am not ready to try another food, because there are not many choices out there right now for my requirements for Fagan. And I can't afford to be feeding them all something different. (Although I will if I find no alternative.)
Could it be that her body has become dependant on the 'binders' in food like Nutro that she has eaten all her life? I know some people who fed Evo had a similar problem, so did anyone find anything to work?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you have! :)
