Hey all! I posted earlier about my baby, Alfie, not wanting to eat unless I was there with him. Well, last night I gave in and fed him some of the wet, canned food. He went to town on it and didn't really care where I was lol. The breeder fed him this twice daily, so now he's hooked. I don't want him to eat this for a variety of reasons, mostly pertaining to wanting to feed him the healthiest ingredients.

I fed him a little less of the wet food today and put some water in it along with his eukanuba puppy. He didn't seem that into it, but as long as I was there he would eat some of it.

Does anyone have any tips on perhaps the best way of weaning him off of it? Just a little more info....not sure if it matters but, I plan on weaning him off the eukanuba as well and onto something healthier. I'm contemplating raw, but also looking at a healthier dry food if I decide to not go raw.

Thank you all!
