Another food experiment

Ok, new tactic.  We're cutting way back on the wet food for Mia.  Previous meals were: 2 cups of dry plus 1/2 can of wet.  I thought that she needed the calories since she's so active and never gained any weight... and look so thin.  I'm not sure if it's all the wet food flavors that we use, or just wet food in general that bothers her.  I mean she loves the flavor, but it might not love her stomach.  She's now getting 2 cups of dry plus 1 spoonful of wet just to get all the kibble a little flavor.  Three days of this, and so far things seem to be going very well.  She is eating her food, she's not having diarrhea, and actually she may be a little bit more regular than she used to be.  Also, we're only giving her treats without wheat or gluten or anything that she could be sensitive to.  The Trader Joe jerky treats she was eating before apparently had wheat in them.... odd, I mean it's jerky.  She really likes this Dogswell brand in the Mellow Mut and the Vitality flavors, they are 100% allergy free, so eat up puppies!
