My female pup never seems full! I feed her away from others for obviously reasons, but in addition to that she will sneak and try to eat everything in sight and then will go back to the bowls over and over licking them and pacing around in search of food. She will try to get out front to get to cat food etc....
It's insane and I don't know what to do! The vet says she is a thick solid girl...
She goes back this week to get fixed so I plan to talk to them again.... Any suggestions r welcomed!!
She is a pit lab mix and is approx 18 weeks

Feeding them dog food with a lot of fillers is going to keep them hungry. Stay away from dog foods with fillers

Is she getting quality food in her? We had a dog several years ago that was always hungry. He ate like you described. We asked the vet and he suggested we change food. We picked a food that was not full of the fillers like described above. And long behold the eating habits of him changed and he did not pig out as much as he used to.

Have you had her thyroid or bloodwork done to see if she might have diabetes or a thyroid issue?

I've heard dogs have no sense of fullness and I know pups need more food when they're young. Not sure what you're feeding her, but I have found that the better the quality of food, the less they feel they need to eat. Cheaper foods are usually packed with filler products that are short-term leaving the dog feeling "hungry."
