Hi I could really do with some advice, I have an 8mths old Bichon Frise who has just finished her 1st season.

The problem is since having it she has been off her food and will only eat food we have to eat or the cats otherwise she is not interested.

We have tried stopping any treats including bits we have left over and have even moved the cats food out of her reach and have even tried all different kinds of food brands/type but still she won't eat, and now I am becoming very very concerned.

Please could someone help me!

First off, cat food isn't good for dogs because of the ingredients being designed specifically for the animal. For instance, hairball formula foods. Cat food is made for cats. Dog food for dogs.

Also, if you feed dogs table scraps soon enough that's all they will want to eat, they won't want their own food.

Is your dog not eating at all? I would contact your vet.

If you haven't spayed her because you are thinking about breeding her, also see Articles (http://www.woodhavenlabs.com/articles.html#breeding) We lack homes for dogs, not breeders.
