Switching to Skipper

Switching to Skipper is easier than you think, and before you know it, your dog will be eating healthier with Skipper.

Introducing Skipper to your dog

Start the transition over 7–10 days to give your pet time to adjust. Begin by mixing a small amount of Skipper air dried pet food with their current food. Each day, gradually increase the proportion of Skipper while reducing the old diet, allowing your pet’s digestion and taste preferences to adapt comfortably. This slow change helps minimise tummy upsets and makes the switch easier, even for fussy eaters. To find out how much to feed your dog, use our daily feeding guide

Feeding Tips for Dogs

Cut back on distractions A fussy dog is far more likely to eat their meal if they’re not holding out for something tastier. Try cutting back on treats so Skipper doesn’t have to compete with a more tempting alternative.
Reduce mealtime distractions Some dogs are easily distracted. Feeding in a quiet area, away from children or other pets, can help them stay focused and enjoy their meal.

Create a mealtime routine If your dog hasn’t finished their meal within 20 minutes, they may simply not be hungry. Remove the bowl and offer it again in 2–3 hours. Avoid giving treats in between, or you risk undoing the progress.
Feed after activity A walk or a quick play session before mealtime can help stimulate appetite. Try feeding after activity, when your dog is more ready to eat.
