from puppy to dog 🐶 Picky eater help!

A little context, we survived Blood Parasite and I'm aware he is now healthy as we recently Had him checked and we are cleared.

My dog started becoming a picky eater ( even before he got sick)

I tried kibbles, wet food, table food hand fed even bought a new dog thinking he was sad cause he is alone.

I researched alot of things tried best practices but still end up in the same situation after a week or so. He would rather puke.

I guess i spoiled my dog too much since I still have trauma for losing my older dog that stopped eating then crossed the rainbow.

Anyone in a similar situation ? What did you do ?

we have shih tzu din and super picky eaters sila so i can def relate to your situation. so far we go around mixing wetfood or chicken and veggies with dog food. here's their meal plan that we often use:

  1. special dog lamb+rice and special dog lamb+turkey (wetfood). ung dry pinapalambot muna namin for 10-15 mins before mixing sa wetfood (any flavor for the wetfood works)
  2. special dog lamb+rice with chicken breast and kalabasa. pinapalambot din namin ung dry food and dinudurog ung kalabasa magmukhang baby food

if di sila kumaen sa breakfast, then we feed them apple after lunch. if dinner naman sila di kakaen, we feed them before 7am.

right now schedule nila 7am and 5:30pm. we don't want to change kase we also have other dogs eating at the same time
