My girl, the picky eater has a clean bill of health from the vet. No underlying issues, other than her allergies and the fact that she's probably super sick of the fish based food. She quit eating her kibble and was counter surfing like a fiend - very hungry, boycotted kibble. I tried a tough love approach, (eat, you'll get nothing else). Quickly, she dropped a little weight and started shedding like mad. Now, to get her to eat, we have to top with something new everyday...cheese, gravy, egg, tuna, oatmeal, pumpkin, sweet potato. But after 2 feedings, she boycotts her topper. So... to kick start her, we've started Solid Gold Green Tripe. She loves it so far, but she loves every topper at least twice. Did I tell you that she's very spoiled?
Anyway, the questions are: How long on average does it take for the green tripe to jump start the appetite? Will I have to feed this to her everyday to keep her appetite going? (Maybe not very economically possible at over $3 a can in addition to her $$ kibble)? And, is buying raw, uncanned green tripe better than the canned? Any others recs for my picky girl???? BTW, her kibble is Fromms whitefish and potato. She HATES anything salmon.
Thanks, any advice is greatly appreciated!
