He will eat home made food though, and he'll gobble it up like he hasn't eaten in days! He is very hungry but refuses kibble!!

Any advice? We've spoken to the breeder but i want your input on this issue. Should i just put him on home made dog food? He is only 14 weeks.

well this is just my opinion but i would not feed a 14 week old puppy homeade diet unless you you consult with a pet nutritionist and get a diet specifically tailored to your puppy. Growing puppies need lots of nutrients for growing bones and developing organs... . I think the reason he is not eating well now is his feeding has not been consistent..
what did the breeder tell you to do?

maybe you could put some warm water on the acana puppy kibble and see if he likes that better...
