    Look for NutriSource dog food. Take at least a week to transition him to the new food. Practice “tough love”. Leave the food down for 15 min. Take up whatever he doesn’t eat. If he doesn’t eat it all, he gets nothing else until the next meal.

    If you want to add some canned food to his kibble to make it more appealing then also add some fiber to keep the stools formed. I would say around 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of ground psyllium (that’s comparable to Metamucil) although I would get plain ground psyllium without the color or sugar and other additives.
