Your choice of kibble is fantastic, I would free feed at this point (leaving kibble down 24/7.) Your pup knows you are trying different things and is waiting for what you will come up with next. I would leave about 1/4 cup kibble down, in a shallow plate, just enough to cover the bottom, only 1 layer of kibble. Don't leave piles of it out and don't add anything to it. Snickers was picky for so long (pre raw diet) and as soon as I just left the dry kibble down, he ate as needed and was never overweight.

How old is your pup and how much does he weigh?? Don't stress if he doesn't eat for a day or so, he will. If he doesn't eat anything within 24 hours, you may want to change kibble and not add anything to it. A kibble Snickers is thriving on and eats regularly for the 1st time in his short 1.5 yrs of life is Acana, made from the same company as Orijen. It's less protein but still grainfree and has 3 varieties. He eats Primal raw in the AM and Acana in the PM. He eats his kibble everyday without fail. He loves it. I was truly shocked. I keep 2 varieties on hand just in case his pickyness returns, and I never add anything to it.

I hope I'm helpful to you and that your pup starts eating regularly...I know how frustrating it can be!!
