thank you for the suggestion. i know, i know, i shouldn't have given her human food, but its really really hard not to. she is really smart and she manipulates me! no, i cave in and gave her human food because when we are eating she would wait patiently, and she would do all the commands she knows! she would do "sit, down, play dead, roll over,...etc.." (without anyone saying anything) and she would try to go to the bathroom on the pee pad (because she always gets a treat for going on the pee pad) so i caved in...(i wasn't strong enough!)

and she doesn't beg for food, she just refuses to eat food she doesn't like. she can even refuse nutri-cal! if you can believe that!!! she likes to eat different things everyday and gets tired of eating the same thing VERY quickly! (so for a while i was force feeding her because she was too skinny!)
