He might be allergic to it. The biggest ingredient in Beta Puppy Food is cereal, which can be an allergen. It isn't one of the worst foods around, unlike some others, but have you tried coaxing him with something else, such as scrambled egg or chicken?

Also, is he showing any signs of being unwell? Lethargy, dehydration, etc.?

If he was allergic to it then of course change his food to something else,i guess its something he would need to be tested for,if it was me i would just save the money for now and change his food over.

My best advice would be to act fast and get him eating again

Also my pup can turn his nose up after a few bites of his food then eats it maybe an hour or so later,some dogs just dont like boring dry food,try mixing it with good quality wet food or even a cheaper option of like fish such as sardines etc,also you could go to your local butchers and get some scraps for free,i do this anyway as my pup loves them plus its healthy for them

How about adding some cheap tuna to it or maybe small amount of gravy. My 14 wk old pup is also less hungry in the heat.so I bought some cheap dog meat and filled his kong and he happy played away and ate it so I knew he had something. Also sardines work good and are cheap.my older dog goes mad for pilchards.
