but onto the food note again.. i think im going to look up some cool homemade dog recipes as well.. thanks again!
It is great that you found a way to get her to eat something! I am lucky. My Rylie is not picky, but I feel your pain because my cat, Suki, is.

I did just want to caution you though on that last part. Be careful to just use the home-cooking as a supplement to her normal kibble/wet food diet. The reason I say this is because dog foods are specially balanced to give dogs all their nutritional needs. If you do not know how to properly balance a home-cooked diet, your pup will miss out on necessary nutrition.

However, if you are interested in learning to home-cook for your pup, I recommend finding a canine nutritionist, talking to your vet, and doing some research. There are a lot of YTers who also have their dogs on a home-cooked diet.

I am not sure if you were looking to home-cook her entire diet or not, but I just wanted to point it out in case you were.
