Off hes food today
Hmmmmmmmmmmm Bruiser didn't eat hes breakfast this morning and it got me worried as he is a greedy git!
im wondering if its because my parrtner keeps spoiling him and giving him our food constantly that he is holding back on dog food to try hes luck? i gave him a couple of treats this morning just to check he stil had an appatite, he gobbled them up.
im at work now so wont no if he ate hes breakfast after i left the house
what ya reckon? do you think maybe i should change the food brand or something?

You certainly could try changing the food, or maybe Bruisers having an off day.

my dogs all try and do this, they will eat when theyre hungry. Ssually if he had a bad belly he would have loose stools and may have been sick, he will also probably act very off-colour. I bet hes eaten it by the time u get home

He probably is reacting to being given tasty * bits.
However, I wouldn't leave his breakfast down all morning. Give him a set amount of time to eat it (say 15 minutes) and if he isn't interested take it up & wait for the next meal time. When he's hungry he'll eat.
