I would recommend getting samples of other foods.
Also, giving honey and nutrical consistently may do more harm than good. They are not intended as preventatives, rather they should be used when the pup is actually hypoglycemic.
Try obedience and trick training and use kibble as reward. This may entice him to eat more if you make the kibble look highly desirable. |
Agreed
Dogs eat by smell, so if the food does not smell appealing that might be why the issue is with him being picky. Parmesan cheese is a good thing to try. Also, if you are free feeding you are allowing him to eat a little bit at a time contributing to your concern. I do not free feed but instead feed on schedule.
How much are you feeding per day? I only feed mine 1/4 cup twice a day and they are all over 10 lbs. So if your little guy is a tiny he really wouldn't need as much food as you might think he does.
