Dry Kibbles

Have you tried mixing a small amount of canned with her kibble for variety?
Just a small amount to give it a different taste?

She get's all sorts of things mixed in (egg, canned, carrots, chicken, etc.). She's just not big on eating and finds it to be a waste of time it seems. She's healthy, she just doesn't enjoy eating and the only way to keep her eating okay is to rotate her kibble every so often .

A healthy dog won't let itself starve

That's what I used to think too until I got her. She's been like this since she was a pup and has been to the vet a few times since then just to make sure she's healthy and that there isn't anything causing her not to eat. I'm not sure if she'd actually starve herself, but she has gone about 4 days without eating much of anything until I went and got her something else. The vet says she's perfectly fine and that some dogs just don't enjoy eating if they know that they could be playing or doing something else instead.

Anyway, I don't want to get this thread any more off topic than it already is..

Do you have a Costco near you? My parents feed the Kirkland brand food to Reggie and Sydney and for the price its much better than other foods in that price range ($17.99 for 40 lbs I believe). Here's the only ingredient list I could find http://www.woodhavenlabs.com/images/...nd-chicken.jpg No, its not Canidae, Innova, Timberwolf Organics, etc....but I would choose that over Iams.

It does look ok. We do occasionally go to Costco. Thank you for that suggestion!

Yes, I know what you mean.
Eating is not high on Bailey's list of things to do either.
He has been known to even not eat chicken and other meat(s).
But I guess I'd have to say that if he had a favorite food it would have to
be plain yogurt.

what about Eukanuba?

what about Eukanuba?

Eukanuba ......no and Iams is the same as Eukanuba except with different
packaging and Eukanuba is a little more expensive. Both are made by the same company. Has corn in it. lThe two of these foods are not very good.
There's so many good foods out there without buying something like Iams or Eukanuba.

I found a site that said a very approximate guess is that you will get 2 cups to every pound of food. I'd still like to know about the Timber Wolf Organics though!! I went to Petsmart today and the only decent food they had there was Blue Buffalo Lamb and Rice. If I can't afford Solid Gold or TWO then I'll probably end up getting the Blue.
