Hi everyone, my name is Gabby, I was indicated by a very nice women I meat at the pet store called Linda, to join Yorkietalk. I'm very glad I did, because it's my first time owning a little dog. I've always had big dogs such as golden Retrivers, Labs, and Bella is my little baby girl. She is 6 months. I recently nocited that she is not eating the same food Royal Canine, which i recently found out is horrible. So I bought Blue bufflou which I hread was amazing. But shw wont eat it. Can you please help me, It worries me not to see her eating like usual.

Thanks Gabby

Hi Gabby and welcome to YT. So many of these little ones just don't like nor do well on dog food, so home cooking would be my answer. It seems to solve all those problems and is the safest.
Hope we get to meet your little one soon.

Hiya Gabby!! So glad to see you've joined...you're just gonna love it!

Welcome!! I found all 3 of mine loved the California Natural after trying a few different foods. Some stores carry free samples of the premium dog foods and that's a good way to find a food she will like.

Hi!

So glad you found us! I also have a 6 month old little girl. We had similar issues with her not eating. I recently switched her food to Wellness Puppy, and she loves it! Good luck!

When you are switching foods make sure that you do it gradually. Otherwise you will have a doggie with an upset stomach. Whenever one of my doggies acts uninterested in food (and I quite sure they aren't sick) I will add some mashed salt-free green beans, a little salt and fat-free broth, or a little grated Parmesan cheese. Hope your babies start eating soon. ~Joanne~

i fought with Gatsby for a year before i had to switch him to home cooked which i love but if you dont have the time you should try one of the holistic foods i have heard good things about them

Hey Gabby, You might want to contact the companies for samples. And don't forget about Dog Food Ratings. She'll eventually eat, you know...
