Hi and Welcome to MT

Nemo is on Wellness , yes it is dry food, it's a great food.
Tylan is for tear stains, but your Bella is way to young for it.
It can be given after teething, like at 10 to 12 months..

Glad you are here...

Hey Andrea,:)

Thanks for replying! Where do you get the Wellness food? My little Bella is a picky eater and I worry about her not eating enough. And, how do post pictures? I was trying to post one of Bella but couldn't. Your baby looks so sweet! How old is yours? What do you give yours for teething? Bella loves to chew on my hands and her teeth are like little needles. :D

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi welcome to MT Beck.

Don't worry about tearstains at this early stage, just keep her face as clean as possible.
Wellness is a good food, but since your baby is such a picky eater, I would probably try Royal Canin. My Sammy Maree ia such a fussy eater and I tried so many different brands in the begining, until someone told me about Royal Canin and that by changing Sammy's food all the time, I was making her fussy. So I started her on Royal canin and never looked back.
Maybe you could go to your pet supply store and get some samples.

Look forward to getting to know you and your Bella

Thanks for the suggestion of Royal Canine, I checked the one of the pet stores website here (Petsmart) and they carry this brand.;)

Welcome to MT!
Your Bella sounds like an angel. My only suggestion on the using your hand as a chew toy--stop it now if you can. The pup can't tell the difference between your hand and someone else's when he wants to chew. There are many rawhide chew toys and the small Kong toy drives our Jack crazy. We put alittle of the dog peanut butter that comes in the aerisol can inside and then put one of the Kong cookies inside that and he can't wait to get at it.
Good luck with the tear stains. When we got Jack back in Sept. at 4 months old he had the worst case of stains I had ever seen. Our 1st maltie never had that problem and the stains have just now let up. Jack got groomed yesterday and this is the first time we've seen him without the stains. I am using a product called Angel Eyes from Solutions.com. You put it right in their food once a day. You have to go by how much your pup weighs. I clean his eyes at least 6 times a day with warm water. I started using distilled water also. We try so many things until we find what works for the pup. It takes time and patience but it is well worth the effort. I'm sure you will do just fine.

Thanks,

Your pics are great. cute, cute, cute:smlove2:

Thanks for the suggestions. Bella has a Kong and I do put the treats in there but she gets bored really quick, I will try the peanut butter. I take an empty water bottle and tear the label off and the little ring around that comes attached to the lid off and I put a few cherrios and a little bit of her treats in there and she will roll that bottle around everywhere trying to get them out, she loves it. I am trying to down load a pic of her but have not had any luck yet.:)
