I'm inclined to agree with the finicky end.
Shakespeare and I are presently having a slight disagreement over whether we're
going to eat what is put in front of him. He's been known to hold out for
a week (does horrible things to me, but it doesn't seem to bother him a
bit). He'll then decide to eat whatever it was, and have no problems with
it again for awhile. Pyrs seem to be very good at training their
people. We look into those big brown eyes and think that we're starving
them :) then we give in and give them what they want. The problem is if we
dance to their tune, we'll be only feeding them what they want.
Shakespeare hated any kind of kibble. He would only eat when he had
to. Since changing from kibble he usually eats whatever is being served
with enthusiasm (well as enthusiastic as a pyr can get, we have to do that aloof
thing). Yesterdays meal he decided that he wasn't going to eat...offered
it this morning...he snuffed it and left, so it's gone back to the fridge.
He'll get offered it again tonight. We'll go for a long walk this
afternoon and he'll probably eat it. Just my observation.
