Yeah your right about putting extras in the food as I know if I put tinned food in she'll eat, but don't want to give her food issues as she already knows if she refuses her second meal shes gets its served on a silver platter and is hand fed!!

Jack is very much like that! So every day he now has veggies or meat in with his biscuits! We just cook extra veggies for him and keep them in the fridge for his meal times, that way he eats his biscuits! If we've not got any veg done a little bit of cheese chopped up and mixed in does the trick!

Shes a bit hit and miss with food. Surprisingly for a spriggy she isn't particularly greedy when it comes to her own food She'll quite happily leave her dinner til the next afternoon (or breakfast til teatime), so some days she'll have two meals, other days just the one. So it means that some days she'd be getting two doses one day and none the next - unless I put it cat food!

I'm not much good with behaviour, Jenny T will prob be able to help! If you do use Zylkene you'll be sprinkling it on her food, so she won't even notice it. It's def worth a try, it won't do her any harm. My dog trainer uses it on her dogs and has recommended me to use it on Jack and it seems to have helped (he had a fear of traffic).

Goof luck with her!
