My dogs were on Royal Canin Low Fat GI food for a while but the vet said I could try switching them to Wellness Core Reduced Fat since they didn't seem to find RC very appetizing. They've been doing well on the new food but their poop is a lot more smelly now. Is this normal?

Hello and thank you for using Pet Coach to address your concerns with Sirius. Royal Canin is a very high quality food that I find many dogs digest easily. I would not be surprised that you are noticing a difference. I think Wellness Core is a good food but maybe its a little more rich than Sirius is use to. There is another brand called California Naturals that you could try if you want a switch. Pick the low fat one obviously! Hope this helps!
