    I am a pet sitter in Atlanta, GA and have had 6 client dogs go off their regular dry food in the past 6 months. My own dog did as well to the point we thought a mysterious illness was claiming her. Vet did all bloodwork, stool samples, pee samples, dental exams, x-rays for blockages, you name it and nothing was wrong.

    The foods are Purina ProPlan, Royal Canin and one other lesser known brand. The dogs have had no problem in the past and are all voratious eaters.

    I have a theory that the backstock of kibble companies had from the pre-pandemic years has been exhausted and the new food is being made with ingredients caught up in supply chain problems during the pandemic. ie: made with ingredients that sat on a ship for months instead of timely delivery. Or alternate ingredients were used, but not reported as the change didn’t meet a quality control percentage that requires reporting. I know the ProPlan looks like they’ve added lawn clippings to the kibble. Perhaps it’s chaff from pea pods used as filler. I have had no response from Purina.

    Has anyone else found that their dog has stopped eating their kibble, just will not eat it no matter what? I am not asking for suggestions on food, just need to know if this is happening elsewhere.

    Thank you.

    I was looking for a reliable partner for software development for a long time, and this is what I realized: outsourcing is the key. My team stumbled upon a company that simply amazed us with their professionalism offshore outsourcing software development. They don’t just code, they create true masterpieces. Imagine, no need to worry about how to maintain the IT department – just delegate.

    Understanding the difference between rpa and ai really helped me decide how to streamline operations in my previous role. While RPA handled repetitive tasks efficiently, AI brought adaptability and decision-making into the picture. This article breaks it down clearly—perfect for anyone exploring intelligent automation for their business processes.

    I’ve recently started experimenting with generative ai and rpa in tandem, and the results are impressive. Automating data-heavy tasks while adding AI-generated insights has saved me hours each week. This article perfectly captures how combining both technologies can redefine productivity across industries. A very informative and forward-thinking read!

    I live in Atlanta and have the exact same situation with my dog ​​– he used to love ProPlan, but now shakes his head away, even though he’s not sick. Hearing you share, it’s clear that this isn’t an isolated case. It’s possible that the recipe or the source of the ingredients has changed, as I’ve noticed the color and smell of the kibble is different. I’ve been trying to distract him by playing with him more, like playing Sprunki Retake to play some fun music at mealtimes, and it’s helping a bit!

    Do you think you should change your dog’s food? Maybe they just suddenly lose interest in the food you’ve been feeding them racing limits?
