HI,

IV GOT A 8 MONTH OLD STAFFIE GIRL, WE'VE HAD HER SINCE 3 MONTHS AND UP UNTILL ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO SHE WAS A BIG EATER SHE ATE EVERYTHING WE PUT DOWN IT A MATTER OF SECONDS.
SINCE AROUND 6 MONTHS SHE HAS BECOME REALLY FUSSY, SHE TURNS HER NOSE UP AT EVERYTHING AND WILL ONLY EAT ONE SMALL PUCH A DAY AT MOST. IM JUST A BIT WORRIED AS FOR HER WIEGHT AND AGE IT SAYS SHE SHOULD BE EATING 4 OR 5.

CAN ANYONE HELP?

To be honest if its the 'pedigree' pouches or alike you are feeding its possibly not helping since you do need to feed a large quantity since most of the contents are water and of no nutritional value.
If you want to feed 'wet' food try nature diet...
Also when you feed her put her food down for 5 minutes then take it away and offer her NOTHING till her next meal time....that means no treat or bickies either.Repeat until she eats...she will not starve herself.I would also decide on what you want to feed and stick to it...chopping and changing will not help
