  • Most dogs will devour anything and everything without a moment’s hesitation. So it can become very concerning when your dog does not show any interest in his food, turns his nose up and walks away.
    So in this video I will be discussing some of the most common, and some of the lesser known reasons why your dog is not eating. I will also be giving you some tips on what you can try to get their appetite back and will also point out when it is likely something serious that requires veterinary attention.
    Your dog may be responding to your behavioural cues during mealtimes, or he may be enjoying the attention given when he doesn’t eat his food, thereby reinforcing the bad behaviour.
    By keeping feeding time positive, the overall experience will also provide positive reinforcement for your dog. Praise your dog when he eats his food and give him attention only after the meal is gone.
    Above all, be patient with your dog and watch him closely for signs of illness. And by applying consistent self-discipline over a long period of time, you should be able to cure your finicky eater.
    Let me know down in the comments if your dog ever stopped eating and what you and your vet did to help get his appetite back on track?

      My dog ate some chicken that I was unaware had garlic in it! She's a schitzhu and she's very picky.
      It's been several days since she's ate. I've had to get her to eat Greek yogurt from a syringe and also giving her chicken baby food. I've cooked chicken, boiled rice and tried to give her turkey, etc
      She has very little interest
      I've given her fluids by mouth Gia a syringe (coconut water, pedialyte, water). I'm a Nurse and have been providing pectillin to flush out the toxins, charcoal and anti emetic meds to treat the nausea/vomiting

    Hello, Thank you for the tip. Unfortunately my dog stopped to eat. He has cancer and since started to take the medicines, and definitively since he received a quimioterapia he’s not eating. Since at least 3 weeks is like this. The vet told to give him a joghurt. Yesterday he accepted the joghurt, but today not. I am trying to vary the food, but he’s not eating. He took a medicine to avoid nausea for 3 days. We didn’t really got a result. I don’t know anymore what to do!

    Our dog just gave birth 4 days ago, i mean she eats but not a lot and it kind of worry us bc she has 8 puppies to fed. We don't have any problems to her milk since she lactate enough for the 8 puppies what worries us is that she doesn't eat like before. she eats smaller amounts like uncooked 10 chicken heads and eggs. There are times she won't eat the whole bowl she really lost her appetite since she gave birth. We changed her location to a much safer place and it is kind of crowdy in the afternoon would that be a reason why she lost her appetite? Is it stress?. She took care of her pups like a good mom the only issue we face is her food intake. What would be a good recommendation to get her appetite back doc? :(

    • @DogtorPete
      @DogtorPete  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey Angel. Was it dark Chocolate or white chocolate? Dark chocolate (with a higher concentration of Cacao) is more toxic, but if she only licked it she probably did not ingest enough to get poisoned. Just make sure to check for GIT signs like vomiting and diarrhoea and if that occurs she needs to go to a vet.
