Not eating dog food please help Heres the story: I had my yorkie, louis. He was a puppy and i was leaving to hawaii so i gave him to my mom. Im back now and he's about a year old. She took really great care of him. He is a really good dog, but one of the things she did was she stopped giving him his regular dog food. He started eating their scraps, and my mom always takes him to mcdonalds to get him a mcchicken :confused::eek: I told her that its very unhealthy for him to always be eating that and he needs to get back to eating his normal food. The Problem: When i left he was eating science diet for puppys, so i bought science diet. I put it in his bowl, and he payed no attention to it. I knew that it would take him a little while to get used to it again, but its not even progressing. I took away his greenie chew toys, because he was using it as food. I told my mom not to give him anything, that he needs to learn that THAT was his food. We had a little session where i put a piece of food in his mouth and told him to stay, so he kept it there.lol. and then eventually ate it. But he wont eat out of the bowl. now we put some steak in there and he wont even eat that. its been about a day and a half since he ate. he wont eat it. WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!? |
You might try mixing some moist food in with the dry |
Another thng you can try is mixing cottage cheese with the food |
Could it be that he is missing his other home? |
I suggest that you stop giving him dog food and start cooking for him special diet for dogs madeof meat and vegetabes etc...Once they get used to human food they will never eat again disgusting dog food |
:wavey: Welcome to YT. I wouls boil some chicken and mix it in his food. He has to eat, Please keep us posted.:) |
