I guess we haven't been on the prey diet too long, maybe 3 1/2 weeks. She was eager to eat usually whatever I gave her that I had on hand. She started on chicken and pork chops because that's what I had. I went out and bought chicken liver and tripe for some organ meat (I have two big dogs as well that are on the diet now). I've been feeding the big dogs venison that my neighbor had freezer burned--they had a lot! Isla hasn't had any of that since it's in enormous chunks perfect for the big dogs.

So maybe I've mixed it up too much already. She did eat her chicken thigh last night! Her activity level seems fine. She's played with the neighbors dog a lot. Can't tell who's poop is who's since the big dogs run free in the backyard, there have been guest dogs and there's a lot of snow.

I've found that she would rather eat her big meal at night vs. right away in the morning. I'm guessing that that is maybe what part of her deal is. She is only 5 lbs, so maybe I'm expecting her to be eating more than she needs to be.

Thanks so much for your suggestions!
