As a fellow huskies owner... I relate to this 😅 unless it's thin liquidy warm oatmeal or porridge, vegetables mash... mine wouldn't eat it and wait till I replace their bowl
Just like you got to buy a $10 to $20 of kibble to see if they like it. If you can't make sacrifices for your fur baby just avoid getting one. Go deal with your family issues.
If the dog doesn't eat, take the bowl away after 20 minutes and present it to him again in the morning. If the dog still doesn't wanna eat wait 24 hours to feed him again (or attempt it). If not, repeat and don't change the meal at all. Canines are designed to go for over a week without any food and be okay (hungry, but okay). And I've never seen a dog resisting more than 48 hours. One thing is them being able to go through the week and annother is them finding it pleassant being hungry.
Why would you feed a dog kibble they don't want?? I don't think I'd want to eat burnt and processed pieces of meat daily, neither do dogs. Feed them better food!
I'm glad the information was helpful for you! If your dog wasn't eating her dog food, it's always a good idea to monitor her appetite and behavior. If the issue persists or if you have any concerns, consulting with a vet is recommended. Wishing your pup a speedy return to enjoying her meals!
Did you recently buy a new bag of food? I asked because sometimes there are changes in ingredients and companies don’t have to share this information until two years later after the change. So if your dog is allergic to anything it could be the dog food. My dog knows not to eat something that doesn’t agree with him.
My dog's, 5month old Bully, morning breakfast is 1cup of Kibble 2 Multivitamins 2 Peanut butter dog treats, broken in half 3 Tbsp of Goat Milk 1 Egg, Scrambled. I make myself 1 Egg Scrambled using 1/2 Tsp of Virgin Olive Oil. I use the pan after to cook her, almost no oil whatsoever Edit: Her evening dinner Bowl is a heavier meal since by then I'm home n taking her out once I get home from work, after her dinner, n her night walk before bed.
Your pup's breakfast routine sounds like a balanced and nutritious start to the day! From the kibble to the multivitamins, peanut butter treats, goat milk, and scrambled egg-quite the gourmet meal! It's great to see the attention to detail in her evening dinner as well. A well-cared-for pup indeed! 🐾🍳🥛
That means your dog is taking food for granted... You dont give anything to them eventually they will eat the nutritious food that you have offered... (Medical conditions are and exception
LoL my dog hates eggs, bread, some cheese, biscuits, so on and so forth. He’s only 2 years old. He’s a mini Aussie mix. My husband and I have bought him expensive dog food, and cheap dog food, we’ve even made his dog food. It’s not working. We just started giving him scraps of what we eat. As long as it doesn’t have onions or anything else that’s bad for him well give it to him.
I’m kind of at a loss, I rescued my dog four years ago. She is so picky I’ve tried everything also. I’m at the point of should I start making her food at home, but then would she even bother to eat it, I changed her food twice this month. And she’s still picky. The other day she purposely knocked her food all over
Rice is better than dog food, dog food is basically packed "healthy" oats, switch to rice or wheat chapatti( it's Indian wheat bread, quite easy to make) you can even add different millets to the dough (don't use all purpose/refined wheat flour, it has no nutrients). You can also use oats, or semolina. give the pup some fruits instead of packed treats, give your pup yougurt if it is not lactose intolerant (flavourless, you can make it at home aswell), and trust me once you switch, you'll find that it's cheaper and healthier for your pup. I don't have much idea about meat for pups, so I'll leave you at that.
Green beans, peas, carrots, sweet potato, brown rice, yogurt, blueberries, cucumber, quinoa, chia seeds, olive oil, parsley, basil, turmeric, oatmeal, celery, a little cheese, peanuts, peanut butter, cashews, coconut are all safe for your dog. There is so much more! So enjoy making them delicious food!
Hey i have a question , I bought a new cavapoo. Now he is 7 months old. How much dry food should i give it to him. He is 12 pound. I am feeding him twice a day. Is one cup enough? Thank you
My dog suddenly stop liking kibbles or home made food due to summer heat, became extremely picky and has also rapidly beginning to loose weight, due to which i am having to force feed her. Great tension for me.🤯
Start giving her goat's milk. It's very healthy overall and great for gut health. This will help provide some nutrition in the interim until you can figure things out. I'm going through the same thing. No more treats or human food.
Haha, every pet has their own taste preferences, right? It's always amusing how particular they can be about their food. What's your little guy's favorite meal then?
Tbh mine won’t eat kibble. There’s only one brand she will eat - and even then only for a few days, you can’t get it in big bags so I’m stuck constantly buying small boxes of expensive kibble😭 so I just semi cook up meats, put a little veggies in there, oil supplement and occasionally some bone broth. She’s the bane of my existence 🥰🔫
While those are good and needed choices to add to food for your dog, the "food" you started with is not actually food. I do understand that most people don't or won't spend the money and time you prepare a real food diet for their dogs, however, real food keeps them healthy and there are less vet bills/visits. Hence it doesn't save that much to feed human grade food vs dried pebbles that have little nutrition other than what is sprayed on it If your dog doesn't want to eat plain kibble- there may be something wrong with it. Especially right now with all of the pet illnesses and some deaths from popular kibble
Feed your dog protein only such as chicken pork or beef and add omega 3 and vitamin powder l have a 7 year old dog and he still weights the same and he eats the good amount of food
Haha, sounds like your dog has a unique taste for Cheetos! Pets can be quite amusing with their food preferences. Just make sure it's an occasional treat and not their main diet! 😄🐾
You think my dog will eat all of that no she likes if it's too big she won't because we fit her liquids like chocolate milk and strawberry milk don't worry about the chocolate she's not allergic but she does eat chocolate but it makes her hair fall out and what was I saying again oh yeah she will not eat that because we put her medicine and liquids and she figured that out so she stopped drinking any liquids except for water
I have 2 under 7 lb Shih Tzu that will eat homemade chicken rice and vegetables with some gusto one day and the next day its like I'm trying to poison them. I've wasted money on canned food that smells and TASTES good enough to eat. and they are like meh.. maybe one day.. next day NOPE! I buy good tiny bite dry food.. catch one eating it when I'm not looking. I'm about done!! I have a ton of other problems to deal with and picky dogs are gonna get yeeted to sleep in the bathroom on a rug with a dish of water and maybe they will be hungry when they come out.
Ugh… nope that’s way too much. All these things can be done on an individual basis. No need to slop it all together like that. For example. Take the kibble and toss it in the pan while you’re scrambling the egg. It’ll bind the kibble and egg so they can’t pick it out.
Indeed, the whites of boiled eggs are a healthy choice for dogs, while it's best to avoid the egg yolk. Thanks for highlighting the importance of this distinction for our furry friends' well-being!
