| Picky eater I am finding this website somewhat difficult to navigate, but, at some point, I did hit upon a post that helped me tremendously. My beautiful baby is an incredibly picky eater, to the point at which I considered taking him to a vet - but he's a BIG yorkie - 13.5 pounds - so I didn't want to look stupid. Someone on this site discussed yorkies only eating out of their hands. I thought that was ridiculous. However, I am now a believer. My sweet boy will eat good dog food from my hand. Not always, but enough to the point I don't worry about him.He's neurotic in many ways, unlike my sweet boy before who ate anything. It's a learning curve, but we're not giving up. |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Glad you're able to find a way to get him to eat...bc otherwise, how stressful and worrisome for you! Btw, you have tried Parmesan cheese already, right...?

| It's so worrying when they don't eat isn't it? My little one now has a little appetiser like a tiny piece of cheese or a dried liver treat and that kick starts her appetite. I feed her a small amount of chicken or salmon mid morning and then she eats Canagan and Royal Canin for the rest of the day. I've cut out any treats that contain cereals or gluten and she's (fingers crossed) really settled now and doesn't have an upset tummy. I would feed by hand too if that's what it takes to get interested. Best of luck to you |
