Just remember that balance doesn’t matter in the short term. The gold standard for elimination diets is one protein one starch. There is NO balance there. It will not, in any way, harm your dog to have an unbalanced diet for this trial. DON’T WORRY ABOUT IT. Balancing takes a lot of different ingredients, which is exactly what you don’t want. Just start with the two ingredients and plan for what LID dog food you want to work towards and try those ingredients first. Like if the food you want to try has venison, peas, and tapioca, start with venison and tapioca, or venison and peas, then the first food you add is the other main ingredient of the food you want to go to.
