    • It's not bad, I went from Iams to Kirkland, he did have the runs for a couple days but that may be caused from having to digest something new, he's fine now. Try maybe mixing the two together to start with, to get him used to it.

    • I've fed my dog Kirkland wet food. My vet said it is okay, however feeding a different dry food such as Eukanuba or Iams. I feed the wet food mixed with dry as a supplement. There has been no negative effects, just making sure my dog doesn't gain too much wait. Try it, your dog will like it.

    • Before making the switch, be sure to read the ingredient label for Kirkland Dog Food very carefully. Innova EVO is a super premium dog food, and you want to make sure that Kirkland takes the same care in using natural ingredients wherever possible, and that they don't use meat byproducts and useless fillers. Innova may be expensive, but you usually have to feed less of the premium stuff than you do the regular stuff. Plus, the long-term health of your dog might be less expensive than switching to a lower-quality food now and treating some kind of allergy or digestive problem later.However, if your vet says it's OK and the food looks fine to you, then your dog should be fine. :) Just be sure to transition slowly -- start with 25% of the new food mixed with 75% of the old food for a week, then 50%, 50%; then 75% of the new food, 25% of the old food; then finally all new food. Otherwise your dog will have some tummy pains!
