however after i joined YT i learned much.
to get her to eat you can start for 2 weeks with boiled chicken and rice; if not then you can give gerber baby food; beef, chicken apple dinner and banana; mix a bit of each and add probiotic and digestive enzymes.
then eventually you have to switch to dog food; i have tried everything you can imagine and she wouldnt eat none. until someone recommended the honest kitchen; which is human grade dehydrated raw food; which you can add warm water to. my dog loves it and she eats 4 small meals daily; adn i add digestive enzymes and probiotic.
good luck  |
I did try chicken and rice and she would not even look at it. Thank you so much for your suggestion on Honest Kitchen, I was not able to find that but did get Stella and Chewys .. also a raw food meal for small dogs (have you heard of that?). I assume its good for puppies? She ate almost a full patty, which is the most I have seen her eat since she got here. Hopefully tomorrow she will continue to eat that. Thanks again!!!!
