[nagdu] any suggestions?

[Pickrell, Rebecca M (TASC)]

Put the food down for five to ten minutes and take it away. He'll get
the idea he needs to eat when the food is there. He won't let himself
starve. This is assumming he's got no other health issues.

Hi all,
So I've had rolo for about a week and a half. He's already grown like
woe. Anyway, as of current I'm feeding him this stuff called nature
chicken and rice, its something kind of local apparently and I get it
delivered for free. The problem? Well, I don't think rolo likes it.
Maybe I'm wrong, but when its feeding time, he's not interested, I
have to sit on teh ground and coax him to eat the stuff, he'll eat a
few kibbles and then that's it and so I'll have to talk with him, move
the bowl around, move the food in teh bowl, etc. and then he'll eat a
few more kibbles, but it seems that he doesn't like it, and sometimes
while eating he'll just shakes his head, not like an ear shake, but
just like a yuck kinda shake. I've loved everyones responses about
your dogs, its facinating to me that's for sure. I'm wondering what
you guys would suggest. I really do not want to go the raw way, not
because its bad, but to be honest it kind of groses me out, and others
I live with, so yeah. I'm open to dry, canned, freeze dries, pretty
much anything but raw stuff, so suggestions, would be fabulous.
Jessica and Rolo
