Hi Brenda, Just to let you know, when Chloe was little - she stayed with her mom until she was 3 and 1/2 months old - she would not eat her Iams very well either unless I diced up boiled chicken and mixed it up good. I slowly put less & less chicken in her mix and within 2 months I think it was, I mixed it no more, THEN when we got Sissy, my vet just told me to remove CHloe from Puppy food and start the adult (mixing half & half for a week or so) Well guess what, back to square one - She also went back to taking the puppy food instead of her own, what a nightmare to sit and watch them eat and not let one into the other's dish (different rooms of course) but all it took was the phone to rings, in a split second, the puppy food was gone, who ate it??? I'll never know but my guess was it was Chloe. Now we have Sissy for almost 2 months now, Sissy is turning out to be a good eater (too good I fear!) and Chloe is back to no chicken in her adult food by me taking less & less away each week, she still hasn't made it back to dry only (which I know is best for her) but at least I have Sissy in the puppy food in the dining room and Chloe in the kitchen in adult food, so I figure I am doing ok, that is a step in the right direction to get back to what you were advised to by Gracie. Sometimes the steps to perfection with taking care of my girls seem slow, but as long as I reach it, I figure it doesn't matter when
