Are my dogs bored? They stopped eating food but still love treats!

Question

My dogs recently stopped eating their food - not altogether but often skipping entire meals, which they used to eat excitedly and extremely fast. They still get excited for treats and eat those, but we're still concerned. We hope they're just being fussy and don't like their food any more but it seems odd that they would both do this at the same time.

I would say that they are probably bored with the food, especially if they are not vomiting or having diarrhea. Try switching things up to another brand such as Royal Canin, Eukanuba, or even Viktor. I would recommend doing a slow transition over the course of a week to avoid any stomach upset and then trying on of the foods above or one you've found during your research. I hope that you can find a food that your fur babies like soon! Best of luck and take care.
