Switching to Burns

At Burns Pet Nutrition we want to make your pets’ switch to Burns as perfect as possible.

With all the great benefits mentioned, you’re probably keen to feed your pet on Burns straight away! However we advise a slow introduction is the best way of introducing Burns to your pet’s diet.  Change to the trial food gradually. A slow introduction allows a smooth change of intestinal bacteria, which minimises the risk of intestinal upset. If your pet is fit and healthy, you can pick from any of our great products to introduce over 10-14 days.

Gradual changeover

Contact us for advice if your pet is sensitive or suffers from any particular conditions, as we can recommend a suitable product and also make alterations to the introductory period to best suit your pet and their condition.

1. While you are introducing a new food it is best to feed only the new food for this period.  This will allow you to gauge how well your pet is adjusting to their new food.
2. Make sure you feed the correct amount of food to meet but not exceed your pet’s requirements. It’s really important to get the feeding amount right as overfeeding will cancel out the benefit of feeding the correct type of food.
3. Regular exercise helps burn excess calories, discharge waste, improve circulation and provide mental stimulation.

All pets are different and how we introduce a new food can vary from one dog to another. Our nutritionists are always on hand to help and provide advice on what is best for your dog and their individual needs – scroll down to get in touch.
