I would strongly suggest that you only feed her at set times during the day...there's no way to properly monitor, and therefore be able to adjust when needed, her food intake. Measure out a meal's worth of food, put it down for her to eat, wait 15 minutes then remove. She'll get the idea quickly.

I'll point out, too, that the food you're feeding is really not great quality...it's choc-full of fillers and unnecessary ingredients. Her inappetance could be a sign that it's not an appropriate diet for her (as was the case with my german shepherd, who was skinnyskinny and pretty much refused to eat for two years until we switched her to a biologically appropriate diet - raw.) I suggest that you look at some of the other threads in this forum to get a sense of what kind of food would give your puppy the best start possible.
