I am a wreck here thinking this puppy is going to go into hypoglycemic shock or something. Yesterday she ate a couple of chicken sticks and today won't touch them.
I am about in tears here wondering what to do.
Do I keep trying different things or do I put food down and force myself to wait till she is hungry enough?
I hate this, really I do.
Jenni, force yourself to TOUGH LOVE. She WILL eat. Put down a quality dry food and WALK away. Just make sure she gets her Nutrical. You are making yourself a FOOD SLAVE. I know, I was one too. But no more. I had to walk away too. Their stomach capacity if very tiny. About a TBLS of food is plenty when they are babies. When she's hungry, she WILL eat. Right now, with you trying all these different things, you are only making her more picky. You are the boss, not her.
