Royal canin is an excellent food choice with research to prove the quality of its ingredients and a balance nutrition for dogs. I would not advise feeding bread or other similar human food items because they are very filling without adding much nutritional value for Gabbar. If Gabbar has lost his appetite you can try to tempt him with boiled boneless chicken breast and steamed white rice. This is only a temporary measure however, and if the problem continues he should see a veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach and please post any further questions you may have!!! We are here to help you and Gabbar!
