Won't eat out of dog dishes We have only had Gizmo for 2 almost three days and he must have been fed people food from the table before he was in the shelter. We were told to feed him twice a day and we went and got the same food the shelter was using. We plan to gradually change him to puppy food. We put the food down and showed him where it was. He ate and drank as long as we were standing there but stop when we leave. As of now he still hasn't finished last nights food. BUT if you bring him a hand full of food he will gobble it up. What do we do just leave the food in the dish until he eats it or pick it up after an hour or two. We do not like begging dogs and do not feed human food. Any suggestions from any one on how to solve this problem. I just love him he is a sweetie...
Oh before you ask we cleaned the bowls extra good so he could not tell they were used by another dog before.
