I am very interested in this whole thread, because I have the same problem. Boo is almost 2yrs old, and has never been a great eater. I've heard great stuff about raw food, too, but honestly it sounds a bit messy, it would gross me out a little bit, and mainly, we both work full time and I work different hours all the time-we often forget to pull meat out of the freezer for us! I do try a bit of chicken with chicken broth with her Nutro Ultra, but mostly she slurps up the chicken and broth & leaves the dry food. I don't want to feed her only wet so that her teeth don't go bad. She acts like she's starving and it breaks our hearts! She ends up eating just under 1/3 cup of food once a day.(We feed her twice a day) Her weight is good and her coat looks good. She was a rescue and I think she started out on people food, which is why she spends most evenings looking at us like,"how could you do this to me!" Please keep the answers coming!!!
