Okay, let me say this in all earnestness-THE HONEST KITCHEN

I mean, oh yeah!!!! I just read through this long long thread, and all I can say is- THE HONEST KITCHEN

I had the EXACT problem as you. Cassie would not eat. She would not eat home cooking with supplements, She picked at her food, was uninterested. I have a toy chest full of food I bought her from Blue Buffalo to Wellness and everything in between. I have a closet full of every supplement known to the dog world, and then some. She would not eat. Then I read something on here about The Honest Kitchen. I thought I would give it a try, because I was desperate like you. I even tried the raw medallians, which she actually loved, but she kept throwing up from them, so I could not feed them to her.

I now feed her the Force. She is 2 lbs full grown. I also have another teeny one, 2.6 lbs full grown. They both eat the Force. I mix a quarter cup of the Force with warm organic chicken soup and let rest for 10 minutes. Then I add an equal amount of whatever I feel like adding, maybe a quarter cup of cooked ground lamb, or chicken, or salmon, or whatever. This last step is purely optional. I also give them the Force with nothing else added or maybe a slice of American Cheese, whatever. This keeps their diet varied, while giving them all the nutrition they need, and I don't have to add supplements. YAY!!!!!

And boy do they eat!!!!!!!! They stuff their little faces until they are about to burst.

Also, I do not watch them. I put them in a room with the food (other than the kitchen), close the door, and come back at a later time. The food is usually always eaten somewhat. I'm not saying they finish the whole thing all at once. But I leave it down all day, and they snack on it till the next morning. Usually I feed them twice a day. If they leave some breakfast over, I throw it out and make a new batch for dinner. That stays over night.
They usually eat most of it by morning.

I am telling you this food saved my dogs life. It is the best thing since the invention of the wheel. I really hope it works for you. After I bought it, I was determined not to switch to another food, no matter what. The food is wholesome, human grade, tastey. That is what they're getting, and I refused to change it. I just left it in their room, and voila! They ate it. I must add we do not give them any table food that is not mixed in with The Honest Kitchen Food. They often get human home cooked food, but only when mixed in with the Force. Now I can breath a sigh of relief, and so does grandma and grandpa, because they were the biggest culprits of all in giving the babies table food, which they always held out for. Now they know better and the girls have never looked better. Their coats are shiney, their breath smells sweet, and I have stopped worrying and started learning how to dance!!!!!!!!!!:-)
