How long have you been feeing Burns Natural Diet? Its pretty low on the protein, only 18.5%, and the fat only 7.5%. This alone could explain her lack of energy. The feeding guideline suggests its calorically dense, but IMO is WAY too low on the protein/Fat ratios.
I don't mean to pick apart the food, but the first ingredient is whole grain brown rice, NOT a meat protein. Even though rice is highly digestable, it can cause for looser stools. Peas are high on the list, can cause gas. Not sure if this helps, but thought I'd point it out.
