Stump has been on so many diffrent foods.. First it was Science Diet (his breeder fed this) and he wouldn't eat it at all. So then I switched to Nutro and he didn't like it either.. then it was Nutro Ultra, and he will eat it ocassionaly.

So today I went and got him Merrick's Turducken. I figured it was time to switch to adult food since he is 14 months old. To all of you who feed it, do you feed it reguarly or do you mix it with the water to make the gravy, or do you mix it with the wet food?

I put it out already with the water and Stump sniffed it an walked off, I'm hoping this is because he isn't hungry right now!!!

One more questions, sorry this is so long, How much food does your pup normally eat? I buy the 5 pounds bags and Stump is 14 months and we have only gone through 2 bags. I feel like he is starving himself, He doest get snacks/treats and when he won't eat we boil him chicken (which he is now spoiled on). But is this normal for him to not eat that much???
