Ok so for years I've fed Lilly Natural Balance, months ago I had her on the lamb and brown rice small bites food and she was doing good on it. Long story short I started dating a guy who has a tiny chihuahua and he feeds her crappy food. We tried separating them and even tried just putting them both on the Natural Balance but his dog dropped some weight and it worried him. Honestly she was probably at the weight she needed to be and was just overeating the food that wasn't good for her. I'm pretty sure the food is very high in fat and salt as it isn't even a brand like Purina etc. Needless to say we wound up having them both on the crappy kibble. Lilly loves it... which is scary because she has always ate good but not like this. She has put on weight and his dog has put back on her weight.

The reason I had Lilly on the NB to begin with is because she has horrible skin allergies and would constantly sit around and bite/itch. Of course we are back at square one now, she is sooo uncomfortable I can tell. I feel like the worst mommy in the world for allowing this to happen. I tried to get the NB food and put her back on it and she REFUSES to eat it. She picks out the old food and won't touch the NB. I even tried feeding her just the NB and she went a whole day without eating then wound up puking the yellow bile stuff.

What do I need to do? What food do you all reccommend I try for both dogs? I need a small kibble. I think they like the nasty stuff too because it is a softer kibble. Lilly is around 9 lbs and his chihuahua is around 4.

Thanks so much in advance!!
