    You have made it harder by actually hand feeding him (don't worry I am guilty of doing it as well!)

    Are you feeding the same thing the breeder was feeding? Or have you changed the food?

    I just got a new puppy and I started feeding what the breeder was giving him and he didn't seem that interested. I bought a different food that I know my older dogs like and he went crazy for it!

    I would play around with the food a little to find something your pup likes, it might take a few tries but not all dogs like the same food.
    Just remember to change foods slowly if you do decide to try it to avoid an upset stomach
