Sasha likes it, maggie- not so well. It's why I am thinking of what to give her. I feel dry food is probably best for things like keeping costs low but she doesn't seem to like eating kibble in general. I have even tried other kibble. I've used broths on her food and she somewhat eats it if its mushy, but still doesnt seem to like it that much.

The other kibble she's gotten was fromm, with I think lamb.


I thought canned food would be better because we once had to give her hill's prescription diet because of the vomitting she once had and she loved it. licked the bowl clean, over and over again. The food had the consistency of like.... mashed potatoes, but with tons of gravy on it. So easy to eat, and was very happy. Other than that, she will happily take treats, and other things.


Like it's not that I want to buy wet food, because I feel my wallet crying by it but I want her to eat a healthy balanced meal. I figured I could do a 75% canned food, then sneak in 10% to 15% kibble, moisten the kibble, mash it and hide it in it.

According to the cans, for a 13pound dog I should be feeding 1 to 1 1/2 cans per day. So to ease the cost of it I'd use a little kibble to make it go a long way. Or half wet mashed kibble, half canned food. Of course while still keeping in mind treat times in it.

So she doesn't get fat. As for what she seems to like to do most is rest by my feet. She doesn't play with toys or anything. She does like a game of chase though. We do walks too as well to bring it in. About half hour walks since she's so little I don't know how much is too much.

I was talking to the vet yesterday about how much I should be feeding the puppy and that he would not eat as much as the canish thing says and she said that's fine because you should feed 20% less then what the recommending feeding suggestion is. Wet food is actually better for dogs but it is expensive and less convenient so people usually stick to dry.
