Well, I made a mistake. The vet had recommended giving Tia soft food a couple of times so that she could be "socialized" to it, incase when she's oloder she needs medication or supplements, she won't refuse canned food.

She can't eat a full can, and I only had a bit left, so I put the leftovers on top of her kibble. Since that meal, she wouldn't eat ANY of her kibble. She just walks towards it and sniffs it, and moves on. We were concerned, so we bought a different soft food (Eukanuba puppy canned food), and I put a couple of table spoons in her bowl, then I poured her kibble (about 1/4 to 1/3 cup) on top. She eats it! I guess she has to poer her way through some of the kibble to get to the "good" stuff. I'm wary of feeding her only soft food, because I don't want her to ahve dental problems.

I'm trying to condition her to having my finger massage her teeth and gums. I hope by next week I'll be able to brush her teeth
