Please help, our 4 1/2month old puppy will only eat cat food! She will go all day not eating her own until we give her some, she ate her own when we 1st got her but the last few weeks she's become so picky!
I got dog food in gravy as the cats is gravy but won't eat that either.

No! Don't let the puppy eat cat food! It is not good for dogs on a regular basis, most dogs love it, probably because it is higher in protein, but this puts additional strain on your pups liver & kidneys.

I know it's worrying when they don't eat, especially in a puppy, but she really won't starve herself to death. Put her food down for 20 mins then pick it up and don't feed her until her next meal, then food picked up after 20 mins.

Be strong! Smile
