It took some time and patience but, after two months with us, Milo is finally eating more regularly. We also entice him with a teaspoonful (or two) of wet food alongside his kibble at breakfast and dinner. Be patient, it really does get better! |
I forgot to mention that when I got my Milo, he was 4 lbs at 7 months and they told us he was a picky eater it turns out he was not a picky eater he just did not like the food he was on.....he is now 3 1/2 and weighs 6 1/2lbs. Also he would not eat out of a bowl, so someone suggested to us to feed him with the Amaze-A-Ball, you can get them at petco. What I do is I put his whole meal of dry kibble in the ball and he has to push it with his nose to get the food out, he loves it. This week he started a new trick, I asked him wheres the ball do you want some food and he pushed the ball to me too cute.
