How To Get A Picky Dog To Eat Kibbles? I Did It In 4 Days!

Published 2021-03-28
Genie's regular diet consists of kibbles + freeze dried meat, can food once in a while with occasional treats. She is a slow eater, I usually leave the food out for her so she can eat whenever. But on this scheduled diet, things has to be done a little differently, I will only give her 10 mins to eat, if she is not finished by the 10 min mark, I will take the food away from her. I only gave her about half of what she normally eats per meal, so she would be hungry for her next meal, in the meantime, make sure she gets enough exercise. It's ok for dogs to not eat for a few days, but make sure they drink plenty of water. If your dog does not eat or drink anything for a few days, please contact your vet.

Omg the struggle is real! haha. I'm going through the same problem with with new puppy, thanks for the video, I feel better now.

I can’t relate more! Cece used to be a super picky and slow eater so I totally get how frustrating it is! I actually find Genie’s stubborness super cute lol, I laughed when I look at her poker face when mommy put her food away. And also eating all the freeze dried pieces and left the kibbles lololol that’s what Cece used to do before too! I’m glad that Genie is fine too - got a bit worried when you said that she has a pump on her hip.
-
This is me. The is a real struggle with a dog with a big personality. They will try to wait you out. I have to be consistent, thanks for this.
-
hahaha the look on her face! Indignant! She was like, " How dare you feed me Pheasant food!" hahahahaha
-
thanks for posting, hoping there's light at the end of the tunnel for us too. my goldendoodle is on day 2 morning of the hungry strike Genie is adorable, and so gentle how she take s the quail
-
wow! We're going through the exact same thing, even spoon-feeding her. We put her food in front of her and she just looks at us lol and won't touch it. Her father was totally different, he would devour and gulp down his food and will attempt to steal hers too haha. I guess the tough love approach is needed. Today we'll start not giving her treats and taking away her food after 15 minutes, until the next meal. Her own survival instincts will make her eat her kibble.

Dry food means they also need lots of water. Lots! It is very dehydrating. I don’t think people are given enough of a warning about how dehydrating it can be. She is absolutely adorable.
-
Lol! That face “no mom I’m not eating that” 😂 my dog does the same face
-
I think she likes it more when the freeze dried food is rehydrated
-
Very helpful video! Thank you for this
-
Thanks for posting this. My Havanese is the same way your dog was. We tried this method before, but we failed at withholding snacks when he’d beg us with his body language / eyes and then we cracked and gave in during Day 2 and started feeding him what he liked. This video has reinvigorated us to try again but with better self-discipline.
-
This was so super helpful, thank you so much
-
My doberman is giving me that same look after he eats all his freeze dry food 😂
-
Thank you so much for sharing! My puppy has been picky for months and gives me the exact same look. I've been losing my mind trying to figure out what on earth is the problem. I've changed food at least 3 times. I'm going to try this and cross my fingers! ☺️

My dog are like this. Even when I mixed wet food she used to eat just the wet food and leave the kibble. How I fixed that is I soaked the kibble in water and after the kibble got soft, I mashed it and then mixed wet food in it. Now that the whole kibble is wet food flavored, she eats the whole thing
-
We gave up after 2 days. This situation is so frustrating. We hand feed our Maltipoo and give him multiple options everyday till finally he eats something.
-
It worked!!! I tried this before but incorrectly. I used to leave the food for an hour before removing it. This 3 minute rule worked great. My dog is fixed after two months of trying all sorts of foods and ways to make her eat.
-
My puppy only wants the chicken flavored wet food from the Vet that is urgent care. Everything else… he gives me that look - he is a goldendoodle
-
Thank you sooo much for your video. I have been having the identical problem with my 2 year old Havanese who will eat her treats but not her kibble! I had been doing exactly what you did for 2 days now and was wondering if I was on the right track. THANK YOU for your video … confirmation.
