My dog stopped eating her food. She's so picky, what can I try?

Question

I tried Solid Gold food, as well as Blue Buffalo, & Merricks. (Wet Food) My dog will eat it for a couple of days then stop. It's becoming a struggle for her to eat. She even stopped eating her dry food. Boiled chicken even stopped working in the wet food. I'm getting so frustrated with her. I took away all bully sticks & treats until she eats. She wants to eat Ceasers which I refuse to give her. Please help! :(

Little Caesars may not be the best food, but if it is all she will eat then you may need to stick with it. All the other foods you listed are premium diets but do no good if she won't eat. You can try mixing in a teaspoon of the Little Caesars with a better food to stimulate her appetite. Warming the food may also help. Do not switch brands frequently as this may cause GI upset and create an even more finicky eater. Start her on a consistent schedule for feeding. Dogs thrive on routine. If this fails, have her examined by your veterinarian to diagnose illness or injury that may cause a decrease or loss of appetite.
