I'm not sure if she is being picky or not or just not hungry. she is 22 wks old.
thanks
Natural Balance is a better quality food than Iams. If I am not mistaken, Iams has a lot of corn and grains in it and not as much quality protein. When dogs are fed poor quality foods they will eat more because they are not being satisfied. Dogs also poop more when on poor quality food because of all the undigestable filllers in them. I think you did good getting her off the Iams. As long as she is eating and is at a good weight then she should be fine.
