Hi there and thank you for using Pet Coach! In my experience, small breed dogs can be notoriously picky with their food choices. I would offer a variety and not only is flavor important but texture is as well. If you are offering dry food, make sure to dry various kibble sizes. Small bites would be most appropriate for Codi. If you are feeding too large of kibble, than it may be too difficult for Codi to chew. I would also try wet versus dry food as wet food may be more enticing for Codi. If changing textures does nothing for the appetite, I would recommend switching flavors / formulas of dog food to see if this makes a difference. If this does not change the appetite, then you can always try home cooked meals with vitamin / mineral supplementation. I would recommend going to (www.balanceit.com) to have a homemade diet formulated for Codi. On this site, you can also purchase a bottle of vitamin / mineral supplement powder to add to the cooked food. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. I am also available via phone or text based consultation if needed.
