| Teddie is officially a picky eater. No joke I have been through 5 bags of foods, he likes them for a couple weeks and then snubs them completely. Refuses to even eat them out of my hand. I will pick a piece out, hand a piece to my other three dogs to make him think it is a "treat", and I then give him one and he spits it out and looks at it. He doesn't even like the treats we buy...except the little greenies pill pockets. Otherwise his preferred treats are melon and carrots. (not complaining there) Halo, Wellness, Blue, Royal Canin (2 varieties), and now I have him on Natural Balance sweet potato and Bison. I even bought several cans of the wet to tempt him. Cross your fingers...Maybe I have a vegan dog?

I usually recommend finding a good quality food (like the ones you mentioned) and then just add something tasty to entice them. As long as the majority of their food is dog food, you can add a little something to their food without upsetting the nutritional balance. There are so many options- canned food, tuna, sardines, boiled chicken, egg, cottage cheese, yogurt, fruits, veggies, etc. Many times this will encourage them to eat the food and then you can slowly add less and less of it until they are eating just kibble.
