Petco has coupons on their website right now for $5 off $25 and $10 off $50.

If I come home and don't put these up right away and accidentally leave them on my table, my yorkie will JUMP UP on the table and eat through the wrapper. Pushing in chairs doesn't do anything because he just bypasses those all the way.

Cool! Im picking up Ace from the groomers now and we will head over to Petco. Thank for the coupon info. I always go to Petco for one thing and end up with twenty so it will be helpful.

But you might try doing a search on YT about homecooking. I know there are a few YTer's that do homecooking and maybe you could get some ideas. If Ace likes human food than homecooking for him would probably make him happy! Hope you find something that works!

Thanks! Im still gonna look for something he may like....i just dont want him to starve til we do so SOMETIMES I give in with a SMALL bite here or there of our food. We generally eat healthy (ok maybe exceot for Friday's ). But yes Im hoping to find something soon!

Yes and he ate it well but not right away. He may have snacked on my other puppies food so I dont think he was hungry when I introduced it. But I did see him when he did eat it and he seems to really like it! I havent really seen him eat anything like that before. He even looked happier eating it. (does that seem crazy?) He ate it this morning great!
Thanks for the recommendation!

I would try to use the NB rolls as enticement to eat the rest of his dry kibble. They are super rich, just smell them and you'll smell how strong they are. If I give my 2 any more than just a bit of an NB roll they puke all night long. I would crumble a bit of the NB roll on top of his dry kibble. I have a super picky eater too, and I know how much you worry over him getting nutrition. You get to the point where you'd feed him ANYTHING as long as he ate (or at least I've felt that way). The things I've found that work are Timberwolf, it is the ONLY dry kibble my dogs will touch, but even at that...sometimes Ollie won't eat it. I mix a big spoonful of cottage cheese into it and that usually does the trick. Other add-ins that seem to work are a squirt of the Kong stuffin junk, parmesan cheese sprinkled on top, or a bit of tuna or tuna juice mixed in. It almost seems like the stinkier it is...the more they like it. I also have mixed in some wet NB duck/potato food before and that helped too.

Good luck, I know how hard it is!

Personally, I would be very wary of the NB rolls. They contain sugar, salt and a lot of wheat ...none of which I want my baby having!

I agree with the sinkier the better. Oscar dosen't want his NB dry food unless there is a little bit of the wet food mixed in. I buy the small cans and can get at least 3 days out of them so it isn't too expensive. Who knows why they like the stinky food.
