Man’s best friend has just a few simple needs in life and they all revolve around eating. Whether a dog is playing, cuddling, or sleeping, when they hear the sound of dinner being opened and prepared, they come running.
Some of the more voracious pup’s appetites appear to have no limits and they will scarf up any and all treats or food scraps thrown their way, then continue on to eat grass, rocks, and whatever else they come across.
In direct contrast to these hungry dogs are the rare few who have very weak appetites and are extremely picky eaters. This type of dog doesn’t get all that excited around dinner time and when a bowl of food is placed under its nose, it doesn’t dig right in.

Instead, they sniff their meals hesitantly before pushing the morsels around a bit and maybe they take a few bites, then walk off unimpressed.
Such was the case for Luna who has been a picky eater over the years. However, the owner found a perfect way to get Luna to eat every time, and fortunately for him, it doesn’t involve going broke buying canine filet mignon.
Check out his perfect “solution” in the video on the next page!

This isn’t cute or goofy at all, it’s sad that people would feed your pets something that resembles cardboard.

I think that’s very clever. Kibble does resemble bits of carbon but doesn’t mean it is. Mine only eat raw chicken wings or necks though.

Uh huh…… Yeah… Nope. Won’t work for my ChiChi. I could ACTUALLY cook it and he’ll still seems to know that if it’s not something I would eat..neither would he. And before you experts try to say anything… No I don’t feed him people food. He’s been like that since was a baby. Just doesn’t like dry food.

I used to mix in blueberries, bell peppers, and other things he liked to get mine to eat kibble, then I moved him to a raw diet, and problem solved!

Might have to give this a try. My peppy won’t eat dog food unless Doctor up with people food, and even then he may or may not eat it.

My vet wanted me to put my chi on a more nutritious dog food …we ve tried so many this is what she does .she literally picks out the ” new” food and spits it onto the couch. We tried to wean her off the old stuff … she went 3 days without eating :/ tried fish oil on it and that didn’t work. Might have to try the baking thing :/

Clever Tactic! Some dogs just ignore and walk away when offered food or treats they don’t like. When I, or anyone else, tried to give my dog a treat he didn’t like he would leave it on the floor, wait patiently, and stare with an inquisitive look and a tilt of his head, as if to say “Aw, c’mon, surely you have something better”.

From South Louisiana. We used to add a light sprinkle of Cajun seasoning to make ours think it was people food.
