Fussy or Spoilt?

My Ava is still being picky over food, can't make up my mind if she is just being fussy(pregnant thing) or spoilt, because I was trying to get to eat something I mixed meat with her dried food, now she wont touch the dried unless it has meat.

Just been looking through 2003 diary, looks very similar to what she is doing now. I know her Mum(Phoebe) never seemed to leave anything. Looking forward to a small litter, her 1st was 9 pups, omg they were a handful

I have had 3 weeks of my girls hardly eating, one day they will eat a tiny bit of boiled chicken......then next day you offer it and you can almost watch their faces turn green!

Over the past week we've spent over £50 on different things to tempt them. This morning Poppy decided today she would eat a small dish of Tripe :smt078 Jasmine at 2 chicken wings. That will be it for them for the rest of the day and possibly tomorrow.

I sometimes think the same as you.........now do they REALLY not want it or are they playing at the spoilt brat bit!

We're coming up to the 6.1/2 week mark now, the growth spurt so hopefully their appetites will pick up!
