Is my puppy tired of her food? Should I switch dog food brands?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Yorkshire Terrier | Female | spayed | 6 months and 17 days old

What is the best food and special kind of dinner for Mila at this point? I want her to enjoy her food without getting tired from her food right now which is the "Fromm" puppy food!

Fromm is perfectly fine for Mila. Dogs don't even have a third the taste buds humans do (1,706 compared to our 9,000!), so they don't need a variety in food. In all honestly, Mila would be just fine eating the same food day in and out for the rest of her life. Changing her food too often leads to a picky eater, which you want to avoid. You can give her the occasional treat, such as pig ears, hard boiled egg (no shell), or Beggin' strips. My dogs personally love pig ears! I hope this helps.
