I had the same issue with my baby. When I brought her home I switched her to Orijen as that seemed like a very good food. Most of the time she wasn't all that interested and I had to make a game of it too. I did Not keep switching her food because I heard that was bad, but one time when she was sick the vet gave me some canned food, she ate it for one day and then refused that over her kibble. Some days she wouldn't eat at all until evening. I recently got a sample of Stella and chewies freeze dried patties. I mixed that with her Orijen and she ate it right down, so I bought more and every time I offer it it to her she eats it all. In fact when I m preparing it she gets all excited and even talks to me about it. I started it on Saturday and she is now eating twice a day with no problems. It is very expensive and the recommended amount for her size is 2 patties per day. So I am giving her 1 patty a day mixed with her kibble. I break it up very fine and mix it good so she can't just pick it out and leave her kibble. It has been wonderful. Finally for the first time in 6 months I have her on a schedule. She poops first thing in the morning on her walk, comes back and has breakfast, eats again about 6 pm goes for another walk and poop in the evening. It's now like clockwork and such a relief. To me it is worth the extra expense. She is almost 9 months old.
