If she doesn't touch it, just let it sit for a few minutes. If she doesn't start eating after 15 minutes, pick it up for a while. Then you can put it back down. She will figure out if she's hungry- she'll eat.
Don't get me wrong, I like to find a food that Jackson loves taste-wise too but there comes a point where you just have to stop letting them be so picky. I do rotate foods after each bag is done to keep it interesting! |
Ya know it's funny, I'm not usually such a sucker lol but I've never had a toy breed before and I'm just scared of her blood sugar dropping since she's only 6 months old and 4 lbs. That's basically the point I'm at though- here's your food, it's the best stuff I can possibly get you and you're gonna eat it! LOL The only thing that stinks is I've been doing that too, give it, if she doesn't want it then I leave it for a few minutes then take it away and try later, but she ends up vomiting a little bit of yellow bile (sorry 4 being gross
) so that's what gets me concerned. Even if that happens and she still won't eat the food, should I just let her go still and try again later? I'm really trying not to spoil her but I also don't want to make her sick
