Answer
Hello, a breeder said to feed baby food on a daily basis? are you supplementing with anything else? This would make for a Very unbalanced diet and she will end up with health problems related to poor diet...also Soft foods are Very bad for dogs teeth they cause plaque build up and tartar and then the teeth are more likely to be lost early in life...hard bones.kibbles/chews help remove plaque build up and prevent the buildup or excess tarter please see mywebsite for kibble reccomendations:
