My dog (a Papillon) won't eat dog food at all, so we cook food specially for him :-o

my dog has a sensitive stomach and I feed him Innova, it is a holistic food that's made from the five food groups - meat, dairy, vegetables, fruit and grain& has fats and oils (the good kind) it's not that expensive at all

When my dog was a pup the vet had me feeding him four to five meals a day because he was underweight. In order to get him to eat so much I would mix a spoonful of baby food (the pure pureed meats only) and it worked like a charm. Even now I'll mix some in if he gets bored with his dry food.

My dogs have not had Canidae but my lab is a picky eater. Sometimes when she gets tired of her food and quits eating, we sprinkle in some banana chips. She starts eating again pretty quickly. However, you have to crumble up the banana chips because, if anything like mine, she'll eat around the food and dine on bananas alone.

Mine has eaten Canidae and liked it. My pup only eats pricey, grain free foods. The grain free is the necessary part b/c the cheap grocery store/PetSmart brands make her skin even more sensitive than it is, and her doctor said grain free is best. But, she gets bored after a couple of bags and then won't eat, so I have to switch it up. Lately, I've been adding a little wet food to her current bag, b/c she's grown bored with it, and I'm not just going to buy another bag of something different when there's more than half a bag of this left. It seems to work pretty well, and has saved me needing to constantly switch her dry food. I'd love to be able to feed her Beneful and call it a day, but sadly that results in a whole other set of expensive problems!

I used to feed my dog Canidae but apparently she was not tolerant to it and had problems digesting. Now I feed her with W/D
