Ollie wins over picky eaters every day

"We thought we were going to lose him.
With Ollie, Grady eats with gusto and hasn't refused a meal since. I genuinely believe Ollie saved his life."



"Grady was having terrible gut issues. We tested for everything—all negative. After many vet visits and thousands of dollars spent, there were still no answers. He had a poor appetite, diarrhea, and intermittent vomiting. We tried many foods—dry, canned, and prescription diets. We thought we were going to lose him. From the first Ollie meal, there was an immediate change. He started scarfing down every meal, putting on weight, and looking better than ever. The vomiting stopped, and the diarrhea improved almost overnight."

Introducing your picky pup to Ollie



How you transition your picky pup to a new food can determine whether or not they accept the change. Successful transitions involve gradually introducing the new food a little at a time while removing equal portions of the old food over a 7 to 10-day period. This gives your dog’s digestive tract a chance to adapt and prevents stress or anxiety that an abrupt, cold-turkey switch could cause.

PRO TIP FOR PICKY EATERS:

If at any time your pup experiences digestive upset or appears uninterested, go back a few steps and start again. You may also try gently warming the food for added aroma. Remove any uneaten food after 20 minutes to prevent spoiling.
