OK so Leah still hates to eat. She did put on weight relatively quickly once Asia decided she liked to eat, but since Asia left she has had no interest in eating again. She literally is not eating enough to stay healty, so that is concerning to me. I don't know if its her attention span or what, but she takes a bite of her food and walks off.
She's not getting any treats during the day b'c I want her eating her good food...but she just isn't! I can get her to take a few bites if I put Bryco right in her face cuz she is afraid he will eat it, but then she goes back to not.
Instead of gaining weight/growing, she is actually losing weight...thoughts? She still is a teensy bit chubby, so maybe she's just watching her girlish figure?
I guess I worry that if she isn't eating enough to grow...well, she won't!

Have you tried feeding her after exercise?? That sometimes works as they get all hungry??
As long as she doesn't look thin I wouldn't worry!!

She doesn't eat any better then...she reminds me of Oakley as a puppy. I thought maybe she just wanted to be fed what the big dogs were fed, (raw not ziwipeak) so she is on raw now like them and her weight gain has pretty much stand stilled. Her belly always feels full so...I think she just...is full? Otherwise she seems healthy and happy and energetic, but she is getting close to 6 months where they slow down and I am worried she will just stop! Ha. I am half tempted to let her get REALLY hungry, ... and maybe then she will eat? I mean, if she doesn't get big enough, no big deal. I am not trying to force feed her to "big enough". What I *am* trying to do is keep her eating and growing healthily.
