QuestionHi Maria!!I feed my english bulldog (Layla) Royal Canine bulldog formula...but lately she is NOT interested in it at all. I have tried a variety of other foods including wet foods...sometimes wet foods work but sometimes not. She still isn't eating much. Can you recommend a food that she may like? She usually weighs about 40 pounds but lost a couple of pounds by eating our sheltie's food...then she got a UTI and wasn't eating much so she is now down to 36 pounds. We would like her to put on a couple of pounds but not get fat. She seems to want to eat people food but we really try not to feed her scraps. I heard that eggs are good for bulldogs...is this true?? Thanks for your help!! Dawn
