The Mirtazapine is an antidepressant & the Cyproheptadine is an antihystamine & often antidepressants can have the opposite effect for the 1st few months, just saying that if this is happening to your pup it may work the opposite for his appetite as a depressed dog will often not eat well. Maybe talk to your vet about the Cyproheptadine, it's deff worth a try. I know how frustrating it is as Sparky is also a very picky eater but did well with extra lean beef or chicken. We use stake very thinly sliced. & Sparky has nothing to do with any kind of rice.Also have you tried any kind of canned cat food ? as that also worked well for Sparky.
