    I think I know the answer to this already.  I just want to double check.  It's OK for them to eat baby food, right? 

    She's got a lot of pills to take over the next couple of months and it would be good to hide them in and also she could use the extra protein now too.  

    I got her Gerber 2nd stage, ham and turkey.  She ate the whole 2.5 ounce jar of the ham already.  It's only 70 calories a jar. 

    Thanks!

    Aww, poor Willow.  I've been MIA (very busy with farm, kid stuff, and vacation) so I don't know if this is the usual or whether you've been having worse troubles lately.  I hope it's not too bad.

    Anyway, baby food is fine.  I've had many vets recommend it, particularly as a step for transitioning a dog from NPO (no food) to solids. Just check for onion in the ingredients.  The teeny amount that would be in baby food is not a huge deal for healthy dogs but you don't want to challenge her in any way.

    Thanks, Becca.   She's doing well but she's having some issues.  There is thread about her in the health section. 

    Hope you had a nice vacation.
