Hi Giles, try not to feed kibble, its too hard to digest, especially when they get older, your best to cook meals, Rice has little rounded corners which can irritate the bowel & get stuck in pockets of the bowel… my boy can eat grounded rice in kibble but when I feed boiled rice he gets his rumbling, grumbling bowel & diarrhoea, but if ur dog has been doing OK on the rice she my be able to handle rice, Susan Lauten told me to cook rice noodles instead of the rice, you just soak the rice noodles in boiling water until soft & they’re ready…..Pumkin is EXCELLENT, it soothes the GI track, I mix 1 spoon with all meals Patch eats, I boil a heap then mash it all up & put in ice cube tray, cover with cling wrap, I pop out what I need the night before & keep in fridge for next day, we don’t have pumkin in a tin in Australia….. Honest Kitchen has base mixes, you just add the cooked meat, Preference, Kindly are grainfree & potato free, Hale has grains…You have so much to pick from in America your very lucky, I cant get Honest kitchen in Australia…our laws are to strict when it comes to food & animal food…..
