I feel soooo horrible. I thought my 13 year old Yorkie was being stuborn or a picky eater 6 months ago. He would refuse to eat that rat poisioned dog food to the point he wouldnt eat at all and then he would get sick because his stomach was so empty.

I thought it was mostly a control issue with him so I would make him eat that food because I thought once he got food in his stomach he would feel better. He knew then that food was bad and oh my, the grief we would go thru to get him to eat. I would put him on the counter and hand feed him, he would turn his head away and curl his lip up when i got the food near his lips. I swear, several times I even pryed his teeth apart to get food into his mouth just to get him to eat. I even took him to the vet to see if something was wrong with him for not wanting to eat. I finally got tired of the money being wasted on wet food and those horrible evenings of trying to get him to eat so I decided to start home cooking for him 6 months ago, He is a pig now and I havent had one ounce of trouble getting him to eat. I now think I need to get him tested to see if he has any kidney damage all though he seems fine. God, I feel so guilty but who knew that food was bad, except for him, he knew!
