Hi AC,
gee that’s a really nice thing your doing, I feel for the breed, people over breed them, use them, abuse them & they are such a loyal loving dogs & will do anything for a human..very sad some have awful lives….
I wouldn’t go over board with a high fat & high protein kibble yet cause if she has been eating a poor quaility kibble she mighten be able to handle over 30% for protein & over 15% for fat, if you know the name of kibble she ate look at what the fat & protein % was?? whatever it was it isnt agreeing with her to be doing stinky smelly poo’s, try & get a better quality 1 single meat protein & potato & sweet potato kibble with limited ingredients for now for fat around 12-15%max fat & protein-25% for now, she will put her weight back on slowly, start feeding 3-4 smaller meals a day & fed an extra 1/4 cup per meal, what I do is instead of feeding 1 level 1/2 a cup I feed a 1/2 a cup that’s over 1/2 the cup….a big scoop out of the container… & take her weekly to Pet Smart or the vets & weight her, your probably best getting the kibble from Pet Smart so if it doesnt agree with her you can take it back quickly & change..
With the Kcals fed around 360-370 Kcals per cup she will gain weight but the kibble wont be too dense & hard for her to digest, the higher the Kcals more work for her stomach & pancreas…. being a female she will be so loyal if she has been a mum & you’ll fall in love with her, she’ll end up being a foster failure like my Patch was, I dont know if she has any training but they’re very very smart dogs & will learn anything when food is involved….
