Help! Darwin started refusing to eat his morning kibble a few days ago. The first time, I hand fed him, and he ate about 1/2 of the portioned kibble, then the next day, he pushed it around in the bowl and wouldn't touch it, so I mixed in some shredded cheese, and he ate it. Now today, he completely ignored it and ran away from the food. Does this mean I have to switch kibble? At night, I mix a couple tablespoons of wet in with dry, and he readily eats it, no problem. I want him to learn to eat dry food, so I don't want to give him wet in the morning too...He is not a teeny pup, 5.5 lbs, but still, if he doesn't eat in the morning, he has to wait till 6pm for dinner. What do I do?
