Hello, my whippet/JRT (with a bit of staffy, possibly) has recently had a stomach upset. She had antibiotics and probiotic powder to settle her digestive system. She is only 6 months old.
Obviously, while treating her she has been on chicken and rice. She is refusing to eat anything else now! Can't say I blame her. ;)
We had been feeding her Arden Grange and a spoonful of tinned food to moisten it up a bit. She was never too keen. We have tried a few biscuits- she will eat none of them softened with water and only eats a little dry- hence the spot of dog food.
Having tasted the delights of fresh chicken she is refusing to eat anything else. I am ok with this to be honest- it isn't much different in price and she is happy.
My plan is to give her 1/2 a chicken breast with rice and veg in the morning and a small piece of salmon (frozen) with rice and veg in the evening. She is only 5.4kg and is tiny. I'll supplement this with a cup of Arden grange biscuits for treats and crunch. The chicken and salmon will be cooked because I am paranoid about salmonella risk. I have young children in the house.
If you are still reading- sorry long!- my question is- will this diet be ok for her?
