| 6 months and Picky eater Pixie is 6 months and she weighs 5 lbs, and lately she does not eat like she use to. I was wondering if this is normal due to her age and does their growth slow down after 6 months? She is on wellness just for puppy, she loves Daisy's weight reduction (wellness) I keep them seperated when they eat bc they will switch bowls on eachother. I was wondering if maybe she likes the bigger kibble. Is there another Good quality puppy dog food that has a bigger kibble? I was wondering about Merrick. would switching her be a bad thing?

| my Dezi is 10 months & his eating really started to slow down about 2 months ago. Some days he would gobble up all his food & other days he wouldn't eat hardly anything. I think the days he "gobbled" he was on growing spurts, but I don't know really. Well the last few weeks he is really starting to get picky about eating. Today I bought some "Royal Canine Yorkshire 28" dog food for him & he just loves it. I think it is the breed, plus once they are finished growing they just don't eat so much, depends on their size maybe. But I am going to keep switching the food around sometimes so he doesn't get tired of it & see if that helps. I don't think an animal will let itself starve to death if food is available. I think they are just "picky" eaters. |

| Mickey is 6 months old and going through a picky stage. He used to gobble the Nature's Variety Prairie Lamb & Oatmeal...now it sits in his bowl. He will still gobble down the Acana Lamb. Go figure
