I took her to the vet the day after I got her and they did a full check up on her, including bloodwork and a stool sample. They gave me some science diet to give her instead of the Eukanuba puppy the breeder gave me (because she was barely eating the Eukanuba). Anyway, she immediately started eating that, but then doesn't seem to like it anymore.

However, she loves cat food and LOVES human food LOL. She goes crazy over it. So she is hungry, just doesn't like her own food. Should I keep trying different foods? Any specific recommendations? I've been giving her nutri cal quite a bit, as the vet said to give her a dab of that every few hours.

Thanks

When you say entice her, you mean put the cheese etc on top of the food or? She's definitely not eating 4 meals a day. She usually eats a few pieces of food and then stops. Could be that she's full from all the nutri cal. I'll use less and see how she does and if she eats more.

As for outside, it's in my own fenced in back yard - should I still not let her out?
