I actually started switching because I had a dog that got an upset stomach extremely easily and I had read about rotational feeding being the answer to that. By feeding one food long term, we condition our dogs’ bodies to not be able to handle change. The first few times I switched foods, I did it very slowly, over the span of a month each time. But after about three switches, I noticed that she was adapting quicker, so I went to switching over a span of two weeks, and then one week. Now, when I run out of food, I switch to the next bag, no transition at all. And when she gets in the trash or finds something she shouldn’t have, she never gets an upset stomach anymore. And she can enjoy all different kinds of food every day. She’ll be 13 in a few days and is very active and healthy. I wouldn’t have said the same thing three years ago before I started working on her diet. Eating variety is the healthiest way to eat for dogs as well as humans.
