What Food?

Question
I have an 11 month old teacup poodle.  She weighs 5 pounds.  I have tried 3 brands of dog food, and she is not interested in anything.  She eats very little and shows no enthusiasm for food. Now I am feeding her Nutro Max dry food.  I have tried covering it with chicken broth and mixing it with cut-up chicken.  She will eat the chicken out of it and leave the kibble.

Next month I am going to change her over to adult food.  Can you suggest a commercial food that is healthy for a finnikey dog with a sensitive stomach?  I would love to feed her wet food, but the vet said that dry is better for her teeth.  She did much better with the wet food, so I mixed it with her kibble, but she picked out the wet food and left the kibble.

Can you suggest a food, and can she eat wet food?
Thank you.

Hello, Canned food is ok now and then not every day or every week it puts alot of plaque on dogs teeth causing early tooth decay and tooth loss, bad breath and high vet bills for plaque removal. Please see mywebsite food food brand recommendations...the top quality brands come in lamb and rice or at lest most do I'm sure you know lamb and rice is good for dogs with sensitive stomachs,
