The only pet store around here is PetCo.  And I haven't seen any samples there.  That would be a great thing, but just dont have it handy.  :(
 
I wouldn't think the "size" is a problem, because the Science diet and the Nutro is smaller too than the Ol' Roy, but she wont touch them.  She went a couple days without eating because I was being stubborn on her food, and it scared me because she got very weak.  I wont let her die because I want her to eat something specific.  I will do what I have to in order to suppliment what she WILL eat...
 
I am also going to talk to my vet about it on her next appt (which is at end of month)...
 
Hugs
Deb

I know you have probably already thought of this but could it be a
size issue?  Jezebel eats the senior nutro ultra because it is little
pieces with holes in the middle that are easier for her to chew up.
Just a thought...  Oh and when I have trouble getting her to eat this
I sprinkle a little parmesean cheese on her food and that gets her going.

will eat is the Ol' Roy Complete Balance Puppy Formula.  I know, I
know, everyone has said that it is not a good food for her to eat.
However, she sits there and starves herself to death with the rest of
the brands.  I have even tried adding some yogurt to it, and all she
does it lick the yogurt off and spit out the food.

wont eat to the local animal shelter because it is doing nothing but
taking up space in my house.

enough of something in it?  How can I make the ONLY THING she will eat
better for her?

night (lamb and rice so far, but have 3 other flavors for her as well).
