How big is he? Loki never ate more than 1/2-2/3 cup of food a day. Maybe he just isn't hungry? Loki still only eats about 1/2 cup a day and he's around 9-10 pounds. But he's also on an awesome food, which you don't feed as much of. He had diarrhea issues and I switched him to Canidae. Now he gobbles up his food and can have a taste of new things without getting sick. Now he'd totally overeat if I let him.

Have you tried things like serving him from a plate instead of a bowl or throwing the food on the floor? At once point I figured out Loki wasn't picky about the food, but about the stainless steel bowl I had it in. I switched to a plate for a while and then to BIG ceramic dishes, like for a 50 pound dog. His food doesn't even cover the entire bottom of the bowl.
