I feed her Hill's science Plan puppy food.
In the morning I give her a small bowl (appropriate for her weight) of kibble. She barely touches it. I remove it after about an hour as she's very bouncy in the mornings and I wonder if she needs more time to calm down sufficiently to eat.
At noon, I roast her a chicken wing and debone and chop it and giver her that. She wolfs that down in a oner. And gives me puppy eyes for more. (Which I don't give her.)
At 3.30pm I give her another bowl of the Science Plan kibble which she eats one kibble at a time, and eats only about half of it. I remove it after 30 minutes.
Then at 7.30pm I give her a final bowl of Science Plan kibble and again she eats only about half of it, sometimes less. Again I take it away after thirty minutes.
Is it OK to keep giving her the chicken or am I ruining her diet? And outside she eats moss and grass. Is that a sign of something, like a pregnant woman sucking coal?
I also cooked her cod fillet and rice but she hated it. I tried to give her a little leftover turkey yesterday in place of the roast chicken but she turned her nose up at it.
She's a Cockapoo and quite Poodle about her food I feel. She can't be bothered with treats. But she's lovely and learning to do things fast. But I am wondering if I should alter her diet or be doing something else?

The doghouse
My puppy isn't interested in food, is it OK?
