Answer
Hello George:  You can take her OFF of puppy food.. I assume you are using a Puppy food of some kind.  Or, you can mix the pup food with an adult dog food...
Make sure you are using a good food such as:
Innova
Wellness
Solid Gold
Candide

Sounds like you are doing a good amount of walking.  Good job!
How about adding 15 minutes 2x per day of BALL Play - fetch... GET her to run a bunch.

Also, add some green beans to her diet.  1 can per day.  Put a little bit of parmesian cheese (sprinkle) on top of the green beans...  just to add taste.
GREEN beans will fill her up and make her feel less hungery.

BEST wishes to you
