	Hello all. I have a 13 week old Newfie mix that was originally started on adult pedigree and after receiving her we started the process to get her transitioned to puppy food. I've recently finished making the to Blue Buffalo Large Breed puppy food. At first, she'd eat it no problem because it was still mixed with the pedigree. But now that she's on solely the BB food, she's acting like she's not a big fan. She's still eating, but it takes FOREVER to get her to eat her food. Sometimes she won't eat it at all, other times she tears into it like she's starving. Is she just a slow eater or is there something I'm missing? Thanks for any insight you can give!
