nope no luck at all, he wouldnt touch the honest kitchen. he did eat some plain chicken but very little. i left the food with him for 15mins then syringe feed him. my boyfriends mom came over and did it for us tonight because we are so drained. he hates the syringe and we have to hold him tight and force it.. i spoke to a family friend who is a vet tech and she gave us some advice.

she said from now on.. give prince the puppy food in the same bowl and same place everyday. leave him with the food for 20mins. after 20 mins remove the food and syringe feed. soon he will learn that there is no more homecooked or handfeeding and he only has 2 choices eat his food or get fed with the syringe. we cant leave any food besides his dry with him in between feedings and NO TREATS to spoil is appetite. he is spoiled and needs a little tough love. we are going to do this everyday. hope he catches on quick.
