What treats should i get my dog?
We only got Lady less then a week ago, and we are tring to learn what she likes and doesn't like to make her new home as comfortable as possible. Lady is a picky eater.The other day she hardly eat anything at all.
We took her to the vet because she has been sneezing and weezing and we asked the vets advice about her eatting habits and the vet recommended that we add some can food to her dry food, that it was possible that she is having a hard time smilling the food, and some dogs just like it better with some gravy. We tried this, and it worked, she gobbled down her food like she hadn't eatten in days.
I've been reading everything i can find about training lady and it seems training is best done with treats, but what do you do with a dog that doesn't like treats. The only treat we have gotten her to eat are greenies, but she only eats them when she is in the mood to eat. I might try some of the bite size one, but i have a feeling they won't work either. Are there any real good treats that have a strong smeel that may get lady's attention? Any ideas for a picky eatter?

I wouldn't worry too much about her not eating. When I first got my dog from the shelter he barely ate or drank anything, but about a week and a half or so later he was all normal. Just make sure she atleast drinks.
