Thanks, Nancy. That was my first thought, that maybe he's not feeling well. But he's otherwise energetic and seemingly healthy. He also takes treats.

By finicky, he looks at his bowl at feeding time and walks away. He's always been a good eater. Today he came back and I hand fed him some kibble and removed the home-cooked from his bowl. He proceeded to go to his bowl and finish it.

His weight hasn't changed, but he has a tendency to gain if I don't watch him. He gets a lot of treats.

I did switch to a sweet potato in his homecooked this time instead of a regular russet like I usually do. Maybe that's bugging him.
