So I switched to canidae as some of you know but its not going so well. how do you switch over the lady at the store told me it was easiest just cold turkey and give her only the canidae well she only sniffs it and wants nothin to do with it. Should i mix her old food in or put water in the new food she likes her food wet.

To be honest, I've always done the switch cold turkey and never had any problems that couldn't be handled with a little canned pumpkin. If you're upgrading food you're going to see some detox for awhile, but the pumpkin will take care of that.
As far as refusing to eat a new food, if she's used to having her food moistened, then you should moisten it. You can even use some chicken or beef broth to pique her interest.

What food did you switch from?
Just add some canned pumpkin (NOT the pie filling) to the dogs meals and it will help a lot.
I found that I had to bribe one of my dogs when we fed Canidae as well... so I would often add a little bit of canned food or sometimes he would eat it when I put salmon oil...either way, I much prefer to feed a food that my dogs like!
