i know not to give in to her but id like to find something she enjoys to eat not force to eat if ya get what i mean lol

I used to mix chicken gravy granules into her dry food and that worked, although probably not good for her at the time due to salt content etc...But I felt the bad outweighed the good in that situation until she settled, then she was okay with food
ive never had problems with dogs eating before always had labradors lol

Re: Help With A Feeding Issue Please:)
