My little puppy (4 months old) hates her kibble! I've tried a few different types (all super premium ones)...but she loves raw hamburger (I give her some with her kibble after awhile). I also tried Nature's Variety raw beef which she just stares at.. it doesn't make any sense!

So I'm totally fine (and would actually prefer) just feeding her "real" food like meats/veggies/fruits/cheese/etc...She likes real raw beef, she will nibble on carrots... I am just at a loss as to what sort of nutrition she needs at such a young age so that she stays healthy/grows up to be a decent size haha.

Can anybody lay down the basics here for me? Any advice?

ALSO if I give her a vitamin supplement, is it possible that she can be getting too much of any vitamins, are are all of them just water soluble??

Thanks!!
