If she will eat tripe she's eating all the veg requirements she will need.  Pyrs are very good at training their people:)  My guys are both fed raw.  Shakespeare will not eat veg :(  I refuse to get in a food contest with him, anymore.  He will eat tripe after a day of being hungry....so that's what he gets.  He originally had me jumping over barrels to get him to eat.  Tracy (on rawpyr list) told me to stop catering to him and take his food away after it's been in front of him for half an hour.  Guess what...he hasn't starved himself (healthy dogs unlike cats will not starve themselves to death), nor (surprising to me) has he lost weight.  The benefit that I've gained with doing it this way was he now usually eats what's put in front of him.  He does have his preferrences....if he doesn't eat it this time, he gets it next time.  Just how it worked for me.
ciao
