Re: [pyrnet] Getting a Pyr to Eat



My Pyr, Cody, tires and becomes very bored with his food.  I have found that 
if I keep the dry kibbles the same (Wellness brand) I can peak his interest 
in food by varying the taste with different types of wet, canned dog food.  I 
alternate with Wellness canned, Science Diet canned and an other brand 
carried in pet stores that is rabbit and rice.  By keeping his Wellness 
kibbles as the constant in his diet, I do not upset his intestinal track.  I 
have had three Pyr's and not one was a "chow-down hound."  Once on a while I 
will sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top of his food or even mix a can of 
tuna fish with his kibbles.  He maintains at 105 to 110 pounds.  Guess he 
would not starve if I didn't vary his diet but he looks so pathetic staring 
at his food bowl.
