I am thinking about maybe switching his kibble because maybe it's just not satisfying for him anymore but man o man, Yorkies are tough ones! I also give him a midafternoon snack of a little cottage cheese and fruit but he doesn't get it if he doesn't eat breakfast. I'm wondering if this is alsocausing issues. So stressful. I also only feed him twice because I want him on a routine and I don't want to free feed him because it's just not convenient for my schedule. Plus i moisten his kibble to make it more appetizing, I probably will stop this too. |
It's hard because they are like our babies and when they don't eat of course we worry and want to do anything we can to get them to eat. Unfortunately, that can also backfire and make them more picky. Good luck!
