    How old is he? How long has it been? Is he up to date on shots? Is he going to the bathroom as normal and as active as normal? What kind of food are you feeding him, and how much? Answers to the above questions will help you get a proper and accurate response

    Mogrann is right, answers to all of the questions they asked would be extremely helpful. If I were you, and you aren't already doing so, I would switch to a holistic, or all-natural dog food (not the commercial brands). To start on the new food, gradually increase the amount until you are able to feed your dog all of the new food. If he or she still isn't eating the food, put a little bit of water on it, and coat the bottom lightly with mozzarella cheese. This should entice him or her, and it is completely safe and digestible.

    Mine gets sick of his dry food on occasion... He just gets bored with it so I mix just a single mashed sardine through the dry... Keep mixing until the sardine goes right through the dry or the dog will try to pick out the fishy bits.

    Sardines are good for them and just a small fish a day will be more beneficial than harmful in the long term.

    Another alternative is to mix an egg yolk through it (not the white part) just a few times a week for a bit more variety. Egg yolks are great for the skin and coat.

    Well what my dogs usually like for a treat is some good old canned food, my dogs love the stuff and its easy to hide medicine in side. Its nice and soft though you should take your dog to the vet and see if he/she has any problems
