My dog has been on Royal Canin prescription diet for gastro issues since he was 1. He normally eats the low fat GI line. However, he goes through periods where he gets tired of the food and won’t eat it (of course I’m sure it sucks) and I add a little olive oil or bone broth to spice it up.
When that doesn’t work, our vet has us get the puppy food bc it’s tastier and he’s the runt of the litter (>10lbs). He’s recently been rejecting the adult low fat food a lot more often and I’m having add something additional at least twice a day (he eats 3 times a day). Our vet suggested we switch to the puppy food permanently and of course he’s a doctor and I trust him, I’m more so wondering if anyone else has been through something similar and if it’s safe in the long run.
TLDR: Vet suggested we feed 5 year old shih tzu with gastro issues the puppy Royal Canin line.
