How is Flint doing with food, still picky about it, or did you find something he likes.
Thanks.
Unfortunately the hubby still isnt on board and says it isn't happening. I say it is and I am going to make sure it happens. I just hope Flint doesn't get worse with the indoor marking before I can get him into surgery. I am watching him like a hawk and getting stricter with all he does. He knows im watching him too. (Haha smart turd.)
When I take him out, he has to get into a sit until i open the door. im now keeping him on his leash as well, so that when I say its time to come back in and come to me, he has to do it. (He stopped coming when called when outside, so this may help with that.)
When I go shower, I am now bringing him in there with me and keeping him busy in his little crate with a bully stick. (Bonus to that is crate training!)
He does ask to go outside A LOT though. I think partially out of boredom. I work from home but I can't entertain the little guy all the time. Lol. He seems to get bored insanely fast.
As for his pickiness at meal time. He is still the same. I ended up with him on Instinct be naturals puppy.
I offer morning, leave it for a couple hours and noon, leaving it for a couple hours as well. He turns his nose up at it each time. I offer dinner around 5 but he wont touch it until after 7pm or so. Then he will eat some. I no longer put topper on it or do anything special with it because then he will eat what I do special and leave the kibble.
It's worrisome but as long as he is eating the minimum serving size for his age and weight, im letting him do his thing for now.
