hi, i have a four month old american bulldog and one night, about a week ago she regurgitated her food and now she doesn't want to eat the puppy food anymore. when i asked the vet why she wasn't eating he said that she doesn't "trust" to eat the food anymore which i believe to be true because she eats anything els but the food. the vet also told me that i could boil rice and chicken whithout any seasoning which i did and she did eat it, she would even eat it when i mixed the puppy food with it. i was just wondering what i can do to get her to eat only puppy food with nothing els in it.

Try mixing the chicken and rice with the puppy food. Gradually cut out the chicken and rice (do it very slowly) - hopefully you'll be able to get her on regular dog food again.

Perhaps another type of puppy food?... different brand maybe.

You'll have to make the switch before you run out of food cause you're going to have to mix it.
