Does your dog keep resisting food like the plague? No matter how many different delicious varieties of food you offer them, they will refuse to even sniff their bowl. You are not the only one dealing with this problem, many pet parents feel the same pain when it comes to their pet’s meal time.
Here’s 5 things you need to know about your dog’s fussy habits:
1. There might be some Health Issues which may be affecting your dog's appetite including physical pain.
2. Their food is not palatable, in other words - there are not enough fats in their food. Fats help make your dog’s bowl palatable. You can add small quantities of fatty fish or fish oil, organ meats like lamb liver and kidney.
3. Sometimes our friend could be under some Stress or Anxiety which would be playing a part in this loss of appetite.
4. They are not getting species appropriate food. This may be time to ditch the processed food and offer them fresh meat.
5. Texture and consistency of the food just does not cut it for them.
So next time your pup avoids food, try to implement some of these changes which could help make them love food again.
