Dried chicory root is considered beneficial for dogs due to its prebiotic properties. Prebiotics are non-digestible fibers that serve as food for probiotic bacteria, which are beneficial microorganisms present in the digestive system. When dogs consume dried chicory root, the prebiotic fibers pass through the stomach and small intestine without being fully digested, reaching the colon where they can selectively promote the growth and activity of beneficial probiotic bacteria.

With careful attention, switching flavours between Taste of the Wild food can be an easy, successful process, and one we know your pet will love!

Switching Flavours Slowly

When switching flavours, do so gradually as abrupt changes in diet can lead to tummy upsets. Transitioning should be done over a period of 7 to 10 days, with a slow increase in the new food and an equally slow decrease in the old food. Start by adding just 25% of the new Taste of the Wild flavour to your dog or cat’s usual meal, with 75% of the old flavour. Gradually, increase the proportion of new food until you are feeding only the new food. By doing this, you give your dog’s digestive system enough time to adapt to the new flavour.

Picky Eaters? Switch it up!
If you have a picky eater at home, then alternating flavours of their favourite Taste of the Wild food may just be the trick you need. A switch-up may entice them to eat more and as a result, keep them healthy. Keep in mind that overly picky eaters should be examined by a veterinarian to ensure there isn’t an underlying condition that caused their intolerance for certain foods.

Why Consider Switching Flavours?

Before we dive into the process of switching flavours, it’s important to understand why you might want to do so. Firstly, it’s important to keep things interesting for your animal. They might just get bored of eating the same thing every day and would appreciate some variety in their diet. Secondly, if they’ve been eating the same flavour for a long time, their taste buds might have become acclimatised, and they may not enjoy the food as they used to. Switching to a different flavour will give their taste buds a new experience, which can encourage them to eat more.
