How many days do i need to mix half and half diamond puppy food with blue buffalo?

i am changing my ORI PEI's puppy food from Diamond puppy food to Blue Buffalo.

shes 9 weeks old. i kno i cant just change it at once i heard that i have to mix half and half but for how long ?How many days do i need to mix half and half diamond puppy food with blue buffalo?Keep on mixing it and gradually get less of the dimond brand and more of the blue buffalo untill she dosent notice that shes not eating the blue buffalo (i had to do the same thing with my dog)How many days do i need to mix half and half diamond puppy food with blue buffalo?
Making the change over the course of a week is better but it can be done in a minimum of 4 days. The first day the dog gets one-fourth new food and three-fourths old food. Second day, half and half. Third day, three-fourths new food, one-fourth old food. Fourth day, all new food. If you make the switch over a week (or even longer), which is better, you would simply give the dog a little less of the old food and a little more of the new food each day until it was eating all and only the new food.How many days do i need to mix half and half diamond puppy food with blue buffalo?Go slower than half and half.



Do 25% new and 75% old. Do this until her stools are normal. It may be one day, it may be 2-3 days. Then bump it up to half and half. Again, stay at this ratio until you see normal, solid stools. Then increase to 75% new and 25% old. When stools are normal yet again, move to 100% of the new food. This process may take 4 days, it may take 2 weeks. It all depends on how well your dog adjusts to the new diet.



If you notice stools are loose for longer than a day or two, go back the the previous ratio until they are normal again.How many days do i need to mix half and half diamond puppy food with blue buffalo?
Just so you known blue is a good food but Orjien is even better.



For three days do 25 % of the Blue and diamond 75%. The next three days 50% blue and 50% diamond. The last three days 75 % blue and 25% diamond.How many days do i need to mix half and half diamond puppy food with blue buffalo?Some say gradually over 2 weeks but it can be done in 1 with no stool problems just increase Blue Buffalo +1\6 cup portion ea. day
