For one, I wouldn't have Pavi as a vegetarian. Dogs should have meat, being a vegetarian is a human construct and really shouldn't be forced on a dog. I would feed her a high quality dog food like Royal Canin. You should also make sure she is fully vaccinated, has regular flea treatments, is spayed, and sees the vet as soon as she is sick. If she is healthy, have her seen by a vet once a year for a health check. Best of luck.
