Answer
Hi Kerrie:  Give her Solid Gold's Barking at the Moon.... This will be added to her other foods each day.  This will be great help for her to get some good quality calories.

Also, NuVET Plus is very helpful and low cost.   It will cost you .55 cents per day for the NuVET Immune System Booster.  GREAT Digestive help for her.... give it a try:


My personal site : http://www.apluspetcare.com/untitled4.html Natural Alternatives - Yum Yum good, too


Let me know how she does with the changes....
