Number 1 all the food you listed up there don't sound like dog food. Get canned dog food, even if your dog has worms it cant resist dog food in a can. It will still throw up the canned food after eating it but at least you will know its worm disturbing it

Then get a vet to deworm the dog that's the problem.

It depends on where you stay. In any city you can easily visit a supermarket and ask the attendants, they’ll show you their offerings. Off the top of my head Pedigree is a brand I’m familiar with. I don’t have a dog, however I’m familiar with packs of the product in almost every mall I visit.

Ok then I think what the other poster said about new environment is likely the cause ...

It's the change of environment, my dogs all did that when I brought them home. Leave the pup to gradually adapt to its new home.

You can put the food and keep water too besides it. When it gets really hungry, it will go and eat the food. Don't be surprised if you wake up tomorrow and see an empty and cleanly licked food plate.

You will not loose the puppy, it's change of environment. First of all deworm the puppy, try and look for chicken intestines or fish intestines, cook it and mixed with the food. Also melt the diamond puppy food with water and mixed with the intestines, he must eat it. Buy multivitamin too to boost his appetite. After all said and done, if he doesn't it, then force feed him pap with plenty milk for like 2 days to regain strength.

I use Pet booster multivitamin tablets. It's 2 types, one with 100 capsules and the other with 50 capsules. But you can go to any vet and buy a good multivitamin tablets or syrup. It's one daily, but I'm giving my puppy 2 daily.
Re: My Newly Bought Puppy Doesn't Eat, I Don't Know Why... by sam121(m): 11:24pm On Apr 05, 2020
I bought chicken intestines today, cooked it and gave it to my puppy, lo and behold, he pounced on it like he hasn't eaten for ages. Though I gave him large quantity which he finished and licked his plate.
Nevertheless, this evening, I mixed the intestines with noodles, he sniffed the mixture and refused to eat. I tried giving him the intestines alone, yet he wouldn't eat but was busy drinking water till now.
Though a friend told me, the pup overfed himself, that's why he can't eat.
Please I need other suggestions in feeding my pup.
Thank you guys for your help.

Continue using the chicken intestines for now, don't worry the puppy will eat, whenever you want to cook the chicken intestines add enough water so you can use the water in cooking the Indomie.
Mind you, go and buy liquid flagyl because diarrhoea(watery stool) might start anytime soon.

Make sure he had got all his shot, and dewormed then, let him relax and familiarise and try again tomorrow morning,

Dogs can substain hunger, most times dogs do have constipation just like us, so when they are not eating allow them to sleep and reboot, make sure you put glucose Inside his water to stay hydrated.

Then tomorow you Serve him rice with sauced chicken he will eat. cool

Dogs has a hyper nasal prowess, it can smell for africa and knows different kinds of smell, how are you cooking the chicken intestine, ?? Make sure you use pepper soup spice but don't add much pepper, don't mix the indomie with the chicken , cook chicken differently with the pepper soup spice and cook indomie differently , dish the indomiee in a bowl and make sure he sees you do this, then add the chicken intestine with the soup water and mix thoroughly, while doing this, toose him an intestine let him taste it to tickle his taste buds,
He will anticipate to devour it, then drop the food for him and watch him do dig in cool

I have really been so busy with hustling and hustling to make ends meet, a friend Advised me to buy dry food(diamond) for my puppy. I went to a vet but couldn't afford the bag which costs approximately 9k. So I bought the 1kg wrapped in a transparent nylon.
Please my petlanders help me confirm if what I have is the real Diamond dry food.
