What should I do if my Shepherd is picky about food? First of all, after confirming that it is not a disease problem, when feeding, if the dog lingers on not eating, just put the meal away until the next feeding point; secondly, if he does not finish all the food , halve the portion next time; if you encounter a stubborn dog, you need to work hard. The dog has drinking water, and it is no problem if he does not eat for three or four days.

First of all, through careful observation and physical examination when necessary, confirm that your dog does not suffer from any disease, but is just a picky eater. If it's time to feed, give him a normal amount of food and wait 10 seconds. If he starts eating within 10 seconds, great. If he dawdles, or runs off to play after a whiff, put the meal away and don't offer any food until the next feeding time.

Secondly, if he eats the amount of food you gave him quickly, that’s great. If there is a little left, estimate how much food is left and feed him half the amount he eats the next time he feeds. For example, if you give him 100 grams this time and he eats 80 grams, please give him 40 grams next time. If he continues to lick the bowl after eating and wants to continue eating, the next time he feeds, he can increase the amount of food by 20%. This cycle continues until he returns to normal appetite.

Finally, some dogs are very stubborn and can go without eating for three or four days until you give in. At this time, it’s time for you to compete with your will. You know, as long as there is enough water, not eating for three or four days or even longer will not harm your dog's health. Owners who are always worried that their dogs will starve to death cannot raise healthy dogs. A dog's endurance is limited, and he will definitely give in if he cannot hold on.
