alright after such a long story my major question is how am i suppose to change her diet back to kibble it self only currently she is only 11 weeks... i've tried giving her condense milk yet she dont like it... and after her jab i will get her either pro plan or innova.... as in malaysia it's hard to get a good dog food... cuz u can hardly find a yorkshire in malaysia as well....

how am i suppose to maintain a healthy diet for her???
I would not worry about the healthy diet now. She's teething and some puppies tend to have stomach upsets with diet change. She's very young and small. I would just want her to eat. Further down the line you can change to dry food but do it very gradually. None of my dogs can tolerate canned food and I do have trouble with upset tummies when I change to another dry food. One of my dogs just got sick from his dry food and is on bland until he stabilizes. He was tested for allergies and is allergic to several ingredients commonly found in dog foods.
