How to get a puppy to eat new dog food?

We have tried adding little bits of new food to her existing kibble, but she is tending to ‘eat around’ the new stuff. I’m not sure how to get her to take to the new stuff.

If you pour some warm (not hot) chickensoup over the kibbles while you try to get her used to new food she will take it easier.

Be aware that the kibbles will get “mushy”, pour only over the portion you want to feed her at once.

If you don’t want to try soup, you can mix all kibbles (old an new brand) with a bit of peanutbutter.

You must mix new food with the old food
