Every time I take her out for a walk she wants to stop and eat grass. That is all she will eat. I finally got her to eat a little bit of her puppy food when she saw my cat eating it, but she wont eat it at any other time. Any suggestions on how to get her to eat her puppy food?

I have tried the canned food and she does not want that either.
She has been dewormed already. It was after the deworming that she stopped eating her food. The vet says she is fine and to change her food. I did that but she still wont eat.

Her tummy has probably some problems-or she doesn't like the puppy food (would you?). First of all, she maay need de-worming. second, try feeding her some light but delicious food like boiled chicken. If she doesn't eat that, there is a problem, see a vet. If she does, feed her that a few days and then start mixing the puppy food gradually.

It took me four changes of food until I found a food my pup would eat.
If it is dry food, try mixing some chicken mince through it. Chicken is easily digested and is good for them. If she will eat it like this, then your on a winner. You could try and wet it with some warm water or meat juices, NOT gravy as it is too salty.
Umm I don't think you said how old she is. If she is still very young, she needs the puppy food to grow properly and you will have to experiment with the different foods.
If she is an older pup of a small breed (say 8 months) then you could probably switch to adult food. But if she is of a big breed, she must have the correct nutrients to grow big and strong.

Would you be stupid enough to let a HUMAN baby CHOSE to eat ONLY ice-cream or something equally INSANE???
