Can I use multiple dog food brands and change flavors monthly?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Is it ok to use three different brands? (Orijen, Acana and Fromm) or should I choose just one? My vet said I could use several but to change yearly not monthly. He said I could change flavors. Would this be ok to change flavors monthly? also if you had to choose just one of the above brands which one would you choose? I'm partial to Fromm because they have grains and grain free and I think grains can be good. Thanks!

I agree with your vet it's ok to change food, and to do it yearly. If you want to change flavors monthly, do it slowly to avoid GI upset. I agree that grains are good for dogs, and I only recommend doing grain free if the dog has allergies. I would give your dog Fromm :-)
