Thank you for the advice. I do appreciate it. The only thing I can think of is possibly the bully sticks. Bullies daily, once a week she gets a Petrodex chew stick and occassionally some coconut chips on her food or to practice tricks.
If you still think it is TOTW, can you recommend a good quality food? Thanks!
