not eating
Help.
My Angus is now 7,5 months, and till for a couple of weeks he was eating all that was put in front of him,
and since about two weeks he plays with the food, ( dry food ) weve tried 5 new foods for him, feeding by hand, ( i know but hes a bit spoilt) weve tried mixing fish and all sorts of extras for him but he has no real intrest, hes been wormed and he is 100% fit but just dont want to eat, Has anybody else had the same problem?????, my other Bullies eat with out lifting the head out of the bowl till its all gone,

Re: not eating
Milly has good days and bad days are you leaving the food down or taking it up after 10 mins or so ??

Re: not eating
Moo is going through a spell of this at the mo, I just try not to pander to her, I know she likes the food she has been on it for a couple of months now but refuses to eat breakfast, sometimes I mix it with warm water which does the trick. The thing is I know she won't let herself starve Xx

Re: not eating
I wouldn't keep changing the food, for some reason this usually seems to confuse a dog and they go off it all!
I'd put your chosen food down, if she doesn't eat it then take it up again until next feed. A couple of missed meals won't hurt, and when she's hungry she'll eat.
