Hello. Tricia sure looks like a beautiful dog! My suggestion would be to try using a different type of meat to mix in with her dog food to see if she will eat that - maybe chicken or pork. I don't know too many dogs that like liver that much or are overly excited about eating that. The other thing you can try is scrambled eggs mixed with the dog food and some rice. I think I would try that first. If that doesn't seem to work then you are welcome to write us another question. Please be as specific as possible when you write us. I hope this helps! Best wishes. Dr. Amber
