Hey,

I brought Mochi (5 months old) home for a month now. I successfully changed her food to Solid Gold Puppy from Beneful. After 2 weeks, she said she had enough. Then I tried California Natural, she is still on the trial package and I am still not sure if she likes to stick with it or not (sometimes she eats sometimes she doesn't). I tried Wellness, Innova, she didn't even touch them. Besides dry kibbles, I also give boiled carrot and broccoli which she likes very much, in addition to that, I also give a little bit of Merrick canned food (sauce only) to go with the veggies.

In terms of treats, same old story. She likes cheese for 2 weeks, then quit. She likes strawberry flavor cheerios for a day, then decided to hate it.

I am concerned about her eating habit, she is already very small; she was 2.25 lbs when I got her, and now she is only 2.07 lbs. So need some opinion here.........

My questions are:

1) Do you have one picky eater like this? If so......
2) What brand of food do you give that makes them crazy about it?
3) What kind of treat do you give that they still in love with?

Thanks.
