I wouldnt worry about it if she is on a good quality food, but if you are I would just not free feed and measure out her food for her suggested weight and age daily intake. Good luck.
Well the thing is shes on a prescription food because of her allergies they think this food will help strengthen her skin, but she wont he at lot of food at one time so I'm afraid if I dont free feed her she will starve because she will play and then go grab two bites and play more then two more bites she really dosent eat that much.
