Playing around with diet could maybe be okay for a healthy dog, but what happens when they require an rx diet, need nutrients to get better, but have now been given the message that it is okay to hold out for what they want?

In 18 years of practice, Ellie's vet has seen only one dog who get sick from holding out.

My dog eats Purina HA. She happens to like it. But whether or not she likes it or not, she has to have it. Her body can't really process other foods. So she can hold out all she wants. Unless she gets very sick from doing so, this is the food she gets for now.
