Yes, the Little Ceaser is more solid and then some are little pieces of meat. I've tried the Wellness, we did one that sounded like Yubanuba (?). Both dogs kept coming back to the Ceasar.
I cooked for her during the worst of her food issues...chicken,
rice, oatmeal on and on. Cheese, egg. The vet was EXTREMELY discouraging...saying she needed the balance that a commerical dog food would provide. I'm fine with that...and now knowing that the Puppy designation isn't all that important...I'll relax a bit about her eating. I just want to get her healthy. She did eat some kibble today...a higher quality brand ( can't think of the name now...but bought a ton of different brands
when trying to coax her...it was reco'd here). After reading that some of these pups also liked having food on the floor...I scattered some and she ate it. Funny girl. I also dipped my fingers into her food and pulled out a couple of chunks ( I can't stand the smell of dog food so you know I love this puppy
and she ate hand fed. I don't want to start THAT-ha! So that will not happen unless she is starving.
Mostly I'm afraid of the high fat stories and the like I've read here.
I'm going to try to switch her ...slowly to better quality food but in the meantime, I'm not going to stress that this is going to damage her pancreas, liver or kidneys.
She is 4 lbs now and we were told she would be between 4 and 7 lbs when full grown. I'm feeling so much better after reading these replies...thanks so much to all who responded!
