Question
I have a 1 1/2yr. old chihuahua and she is such a picky eater.She avoids eating until 9pm every night.I noticed a dog food brand in Petsmart named Blue. I was wondering if you heard anything about this brand? Thanks  

Answer
I haven't heard of it before now. But I checked out the website for it, and it sounds suspicious. www.bluebuff.com here it is if you'd like to look yourself. I wouldn't feed it to my dogs myself. If your dog is eating fine, just wants to wait till 9 pm, then shes healthy and all good. Do not feed her scraps, treats, ect. Only put her food down when you want for 15 minutes unless she is actively eating. Not scarfing, but eating.
This may be more of a training issue. If she waits to eat, do you give her treats so she doesn't "star"? If so she has taught you will. Just try being more firm with feeding her.
If not, you can try another food. Just don't ask a vet. They sell food too. But transistion slowly. I'd say if the food isn't making her sick, shes fine. I had a picky eater, but she learned to eat what was in front of her. Don't stress, I'm going through it with my birds. They're not familiar with fresh foods and would rather eat seed all day. This isn't healthy, so I give them no choice.

I hope I've helped. It is late, so I may not have been clear. If you have anymore questions, I will answer them for you. I wish you good luck.
