Ok Yesterday I got to pick up my puppy from the vet because it was getting treatment for Parvo. I was wondering what would be the best food out there that won't be to hard on her stomach? And would regular food like what we eat be best or dog food?

Here is a start about feeding dogs people food

As far as dog foods I would be careful about generics especially with all the recalls.
I buy my dog nothing cheaper than Alpo. I sometimes get Beneful or Purina.

The Vet gave me a can of food but she is not eating it and was wondering if there are other things I can try

No not the same as humans eat, stick to food especially for dogs.

Why not try the small pack of puppy food,the food is very soft and easy to digest, they usually come in a variety box so your puppy is sure to like one of them.
They have all the vitimans and minerals that a puppy needs. You can buy them in any pet store or even a supermarket.

Yes dog food is good but hard food for a puppy who is recovering from parvo doesn't seem the right thing to do, I am just wanting to know what would be the best blan food but something appetizing for her to eat

The puppy food I speak of is very soft and appetizing, you could mash it up a bit if you think it's to big.

If you cannot get any right now, can you mash up or break down the food that you've got. If you have some dog biscuits you can mash them up make them soft with some boiled water... only a little... just to make it a bit like a porridge consistancey, be sure it's not hot before puppy eats it.
