I didn't know what group to post this in since it could be food or medical related.
Annabelle has been on Orijen since I weaned her off the breeders food. She was on the puppy formula until she was 8 months old. She was not a big eater then, not by a long shot. Once I switched to the adult formula she gobbled it up. I switch off between the regular and the 6 Fish. She loves both. No problem with her appetite. I think she would eat all day if I let her. Well now she is not eating any of her food. I first noticed with the yogurt and blueberries the other day. She turned her nose up and wouldn't eat it. She absolutely loves her yogurt and berries. That is so not like her to not chow it down. I did think it was odd, but wasn't worried. Yesterday morning I gave her Orijen for breakfast in the same bowl and spot I always do and she turned her nose up and wouldn't eat. She did eat dinner, not with her usual enthusiasm, but she did eat it all. My husband went against my wishes and gave her some plain chicken afterwards while we were eating dinner, which she did gobble up. Then this morning she won't eat the Orijen again. I don't know if it is:
1) Boredom with her food and I should try a different formula. I was trying to stay away from red meat formula, but maybe that is not a good thing.
2) My husband has created a monster by feeding her table food on occasion, ok maybe more than on occasion. That she has now become picky.
3) She is sick. She does act normal and her poop is normal. It is just her not eating that has me worried, because it is so not like her not to eat.
I told my husband not to feed her anymore table food, to which he has agreed. I am not giving her access to food again until her dinner tonight.
So what are your thoughts on this. Bored, Picky Monster or Sick? I will call her vet tomorrow, especially if she turns her nose up and dinner and tomorrows breakfast. Thanks
