    First let me start by saying that you must contact your vet immediately. There may be something serious going on here like distemper or intestinal blockage.

    You can try watering down the food with some chicken or beef broth. Those are usually appealing to pups.

    Is he drinking? You may try to give some gatoraide or pedialite until you get into the vet's office. Either one of these drinks will help to get some electrolyte balance back in him.

    Good luck and keep us posted on what the vet says.

    You should take him to the vet. He may have a toothache, and it hurts to chew or something stuck in his teeth.

    Hi,
    As your other answers have stated, please call your Vet as soon as possible.
    Any dog might not like their food, but they don't go as long as yours, as to the point of actually losing a lot of weight before eating it.
    Please call the Vet. This could be something much more serious than just not liking the food. I do wish you the best, and good luck.
