Has anyone used Urban Wolf food? Any other food suggestions for a picky pup? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Aira is four months and is getting bony because she is the pickiest eater in the world. We currently have her on Wellness Puppy food (kibble) and feed her canned food twice a day. THe problem with the canned food is that she eats it a few times gets tired of the flavour and then we have to try a different kind.

I was thinking of trying home cooking but am very worried about Aira getting the right nutriets. So I thought Urban Wolf might be a good thing to try. If you haven't heard of Urban Wolf it is basically a nutritionally complete supplemental food that you add to cooked or raw meat.

Has anyone used this? What do you think about the food? It looks good to me but I'm worried that once again she won't eat it!

I have the same problem with Zoe. She eats Royal Canin but never finishes her dish and she's too skinny, in my opinion. I don't know what to do to get her to put on weight. Let me know if this works for you.....

She will get more vitamins and minerals from real food than any dog food. Boiling kills any vitamins that are "claimed" to be added anyway.
Try home cooked meals. I know she won't snub that. There are many, many books and on the web with recipes if you don't want to make your own.
