If you are feeding your pup a high quality puppy formulated food, she doesn't need any additional food with it. Too much additional food can caused her to be overweight, which will lead to heart problems, diabetes, and joint problems among others. As an occasional treat (once or twice a week), you can give her small amounts of cooked meat or dog treats from the pet store :-)
