Oh wait. It's not Nature's Balance but "Nature's Domain" that Costco carries. Opps.

As for switching food around, I cannot answer that one for you. I have cats specifically and know you cannot keep switching food about with cats unless you enjoy wiping up cat barf all the time from upset cat tummies, but I don't know if the same can be said of dogs.


Nature's Something :p

Mmmm, cat barf rofl My dogs eat everything. Like, for real. My Rott mix eats frisbee's, my retriever mix eats grass (though thats not that weird), and my moms lab eats dirt -_- I don't think its a nutritional thing, though, as they get dog-friendly people food, the occasional bit of canned food mixed with their dry food, healthy treats... They just like to chew things, and my moms lab is a 15 year old rescue, and we all know how those tend to turn out to be LOL


My mom's Cavalier King Charles Spaniel will eat any kind of paper product and often shows a preference towards eating paper over actual food [or even cat poop.] I've often said that her dog suffers from pica [as in the eating disorder where the affected individual has an appetite for nonnutritive substances.]

Grass isn't weird as it acts like dietary fiber with cats in that it helps make it easier to cough up hairballs, so I would assume that it provides some similar fiber benefit to dogs. My only recommendation there is to not be treating your lawn with pest/weed-acides if the dog is chewing at it.

My retriever mix eats poop, too -_-

That might explain my Rott mixes love of eating frisbee's rofl

I know lol I just think its funny. Eats dinner, then goes and eats grass. Weirdo XD The other dogs don't really do it so much. She has tummy troubles with some cooked human foods, so no doubt that grass does her lots of good.

I've heard that cat poop is a delicacy among dogs.
They all will go after it.
