Puppy not eating.

[Stubby]

Don't worry, I won't let her become chubby!! :D
Actually when I was home at lunch, she barely touched the kibble i fed her for lunch. She was more interested in eating the liver bit's I use for training her! I've taught her to sit already, today we worked on sit, then down. :) She's a smart girl, she was getting the hang of it before I left home for work again!

This doesn't mean you free feed, does it? It's much better to feed her 3 times a day & have her clean her plate than give her so much food she's leaving some of it.

No, I don't free feed her. I just put her kibble down for her at lunch and she just wasn't hungry. She ate well last night and this morning though :)

She just gets excited when she sees me pull out the container I keep my training liver bits in. She knows she will get some tasty liver if she's a good girl, so, she thinks, "the heck with the kibble, I'm gonna eat some liver!" My fault actually, I should wait till she eats first then play time after! :D

BTW....it sounds like your girls eating problems are gone, but just another idea for dry kibble, the New Skeet Monks(Great Book, How to be your dogs best friend) suggest a Tablespoon of corn oil on dry kibble a couple of times a week...they love the taste and it is outstanding for a super shiny coat.
