| Start with a good quality puppy food, a small kibble, try moistening it a little with warm water or topping it with a little bit of finely diced boiled chicken (you can use the broth from that to moisten). A little topper of enticing goodies can get them started. Another thing you can try is a little sprinkle of parmesan cheese.... the smell is appetizing to them.

| You definitely should not be giving her hot dogs. What dry food have you tried giving her? How much does she weigh? How old was she when you got her? What food was she weaned on? It is important to get her on a good healthy diet. Some pups like dry food while others like the food soaked. You should leave some dry food out for her but also offer her some food that is softened. Perhaps a small amount of boiled chicken mixed in. It is important to know that she does not have any health issues that are making her not want to eat. Make sure you have her checked out by the vet.

| 11 month old not eatting Got checked, perfectly healthy little girl. She's on royal canine. My grandma breeds dogs and that is what all her dogs eat. She always has access to hard cibble and soften a bowl up 4 times a day for her. Have tried the chicken. She don't like it. I mix very little wet foot from the vet. But this is only a temperary solution. It is not something she can stay on. I will try the topping of cheese! Thank you! |
