| Mercy is Eating! Hi All, Well I think I finally found a food Mercy will eat, After trying many kinds and have her stick her nose up at them. Sometimes she even turned around and stuck her butt in the air at me LOL I was at a new pet store that opened in our area and seen Freshpet select, Chunky chicken,Turkey, Vegetable & rice recipe. Made in the USA, Complete & Balanced for all life stages. and got a 5 star rating on the dogfood review site. She loves it (for now anyway) she even ate some of the kibble this morning (spot's stew) when I mixed a little with it. I am so happy she is eating! |

| I found it in a roll and just sliced it in daily feeding sizes and put enough for a couple days in fridge and froze the rest. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | That's great. It is so stressful when they won't eat!

YT 1000 Club Member | Ya know, our guys are pretty stubborn/independent. Sometimes that's a little hard to deal with, but all in all, I like that, and, I don't try to fight it. I leave food out for my guys 24/7. They are as regular as clockwork (now) eat well twice a day, snack a little in the mean time, and are healthy and active. You might try just leaving her intake up to her.

| Congratulations! As the mom of the pickiest eater ever I am very happy for you. It took me a year to find a food Gracie liked and would eat consistently. Don't get nervous if she does occasionally turn away from the food once she has had it for a while. It happens occasionally. If it is a good healthy food just stick with it and she will come back to it eventually. |

My guys started eating the Beneful for breakfast, and demanded that I refill the Wellness bowl for their evening meal. That worked for a while, until Ichabod (new Male Puppy) arrived. It didn't take him long to change over to the two available Dry foods, and a friend of mine, brought over a sample of one of the Purina Formulaes. They (3) nearly knocked each other over, trying to get to it ! I knew better than attempt to take one of the other types away, and was right about that. So now, there are three types of Dry Food out for them, and I average filling one of the bowls up each day, sometimes more frequently. Those bowls are 2 cuppers by the way. Yes, my guys are big (Teapots) and they do eat a lot. But I've seen that they enjoy the variety, which is something which your little ones may enjoy as well.
