[nagdu] Not eating

Not eating



Hi,



My dog is being extremely picky about eating over the past 10 days or so. 
He has gone a few days without eating anything. He is still drinking water, 
and will eat treats with no hesitation.



As you may know, I am feeding him Taste of the Wild Dry Dog Food, Hi Prairie 
Canine Formula with Roasted Bison & Venison.



Out of desperation I tried filling his bole with some of the remaining 
natural balance salmon and sweet potato, Fidelco provided with the dog, with 
the same result.



I will fill his bole with food, put it out, leave it there for 45 minutes or 
so, then put it back in the food container untouched. This will go on for 4 
meals, and then I decided to make him eat. I sat there, and fed him out of 
my hand for the entire 2 cups of food. This has happened twice, in the past 
10 days. One would suspect that after the 2nd day, he would be quite hungry. 
I am concerned there is something more going on hear besides him just being 
picky. Instead of eating, he chews on his bone and stares at the food.



Suggestions, comments, ideas?



Thanks,

Mark
