My baby Iggy that I adopted this week is the pickiest dog I've ever delt with. He is so skinny and not because his previous owner didn't feed him. The only thing I have been able to get him to eat without any trouble were french fries (hardly any good for either of us). I was given half a bag of the dog food he was being fed (Beniful, which he hates) and I've been mixing it in with the solid gold that my other dog loves. He barely touches it. Tonight I tried cooking for him and he ate a little bit of it but only if I was feeding it to him out of my hand. What is going on here?
