Kit2009 I would mix slowly with the kibble the raw diet until finished as with one of my dogs it was the only way I could switch her. The others took to it like ducks to water but her, she was having none of the change. Now she is the first one finished when feeding. Although she still hates carrots and picks them out no matter how small. :lol: And she was the hardest dog to get to eat anything from the day I got her. Just got another from the same breeder and same fussy eater for 5 days and she was put on a raw diet from when arriving and due to the experience with the older dog I didnt give in so easily. Variety is the key. My vet seems to always cleaning dogs teeth when I go to his rooms and he has never suggested to me that any of my dogs need it. A good bone twice a week takes care of that (although the fussy eater wont touch bones other than chicken) and she still has good teeth.
