| I got Gracie to eat kibble! Well, it finally happened. Gracie actually ate a good amount of kibble for lunch today! I cut back on her canned food by one half. Along side of it in the dish I put some kibble. I moistened the kibble with warm water, then topped both the canned and the kibble with Iams pot roast flavored sauce. She scarfed down every bite. I think part of the secret to this transition from wet to dry is hunger. I also think that Gracie just does not like the dry mixed in with the wet food. I don't necessarily like everything on my plate all mixed up together, why should I expect her to?

| Coco wouldn't eat her kibble AT ALL when camping this past weekend. I was afraid she was getting too spoiled with the good human food and I would have to fight to get her back on kibble but as soon as we got home she went straight for her bowl of kibble Gracie might also like Grizzly Salmon Oil on her kibble. It's good for her (Has vitamins) health and her skin/hair. You just squirt once or twice onto their kibble and most dog LOVE the taste. It's better than canned food or gravy's for their teeth. Glad she's doing well with the kibble

| I discovered something else she loves, canned cat food! So at meal time, I portion out her canned and dry, toss the dry with warm water and then top all with a sprinkle of the juice from the canned cat food. Clean plate with this technique too!
