If he was food motivated to teach with, sure ๐
I usually set out options and give the command to eat. I'm getting better at guessing which food he wants though.
If they can smell and taste better than us, I'm sure water is closer to soda for them with many different flavors. My dog gets breta filled water, but prefers mountain spring water > rain puddle > breta filtered > tap.
My dog is the pickiest eater I know. The problem I have is that it is never consistent. One day nothing is good enough, another he ignores steak for kibble, the next is a cat food day, then all of a sudden it is time for steak!
He has the forbidden knowledge that you can crave certain food at the moment, but he has no way to tell be what exactly he wants haha.
He has been eating much more, hence the lack of posting recently. I think he is even putting on weight.
Today was an eating day. Chicken nuggets Chicken quesadilla Wisconsin fried cheese French fries 1/4 Cookout BBQ sandwich 9 Cesar dogfood patties Kibble Multivitamin Dog cookies
Not the healthiest meal day but he has refused food for 3 days so I'll take it.
I debated with myself for a long time on this one :) might remove it in a bit.
He does eat from time to time.
Every night he is given sargento and babybel. Same deal. Same for boarshead or tilamuc and all the others. Just didn't want to waste expensive cheese for the photo when I already knew the result. :)
Sadly he is. He plays with the neighbors dogs every several weeks, but definitely needs a sibling. Unfortunately the plan was to get a fence and then a sibling for him, but the fence money was spent 20x over on medical bills. Currently waiting on city permit to get a partial fence up to get him area to be off leash outside.
Several teams of vets have done tons of tests and still have no clue .
Thank you. Life has been busy, but didn't forget to take pics. :)
I appreciate the brainstorming. He has been like this his whole life. First very visit was at 8 weeks old due to not eating for the previous week.
He has several types of dog bowls and plates. He refuses to eat outside of the house, much to the betterment of his trainer. I eat all meals indoor of him, and will pretend to be excited and take bites of his food and let him smell my breath before offering it to him. I will also give pieces of his food like bits of chicken to our cats to try to show him it is okay.
On his last birthday party he had a dog friend over. Both were given dog doughnuts from a pet bakery. He gave his doughnut to the other dog to try to barter for more play...
