Ive had conan on jwb and changed to barking heads and tried fish for dogs but the wee * is fussy with dry kibble by itself. Well i mix his food or let him starve til he learns hes to eat the dry kibble? And i dont me literaly starve lol ive order salmon oil to try just waiting on it arriving.

Either one is a reasonable option and is just a matter of preferance. I've always had very food motivated dogs that will eat anything I give them.

We usually add a little cooked chicken to Rocky kibble and he eats is all up. We also ocassionaly add some cooked fish making sure of no bones.

I'll sound horribly mean here but my dog used to be very fussy and I just gave up tempting him with anything. My dogs still very much alive and well so don't worry, he won't starve to death.
If he hates dry food that much though you can always feed him wet. Wainwrights sell tins of good food and I used to give my boy the pouches of salmon mousse from fish4dogs (There was a special offer on and he got sick of them loooong before the pouches ran out. I think i've still got a box left)

Roxy was a very fussy eater when she was a puppy. I literally tried putting everything on dry food to temp her,and she always had an upset tummy on wet food. doh
I was advised to' leave her to starve' she will soon eat it! At one stage she went 4 days with eating next to nothing!! Surprised
As a last resort(at about 6 months old) I tried her on raw.. BARF to be exact. I have never looked back and she is 3 years old on the 29th March.

BARF is not expensive at all. I am lucky enough to get it at my local pet store. There is a really good link on here about reeding raw. I am sure you could find a local stockist on the internet. Well worth looking into Krik.. Good Luck!!
