Has anyone encounter/ have a dog who is a die hard picky eater because I am losing my mind here. I have a 5 month gsd who is a picky eater she will just eat 2 mouth full of her food and leave the rest, I have 7 different bags of dry food, a full bag of noodles and a bag of brown rice and she hardly eat any of them, I got the gsd wen she was 2month old and she was a picky eater and now she is 5month still a picky eater am already feed up of the dog, I traveled with her to abj,Lagos to see different vet if they can identify if anything is wrong with the dog but all keep saying she is OK my other dogs are well built they give maximum respect when you walk them but when the gsd is out people say I maltreat the dog because she is lean and it's affecting me mentally seeing the dog is not giving me joy at all I have tried not feeding the dog for 6days it did not work. I might wake up one day and dump the dog on the street. Please if you have a way you can help please do, all advise are welcome

Lol. I used to have one GSD like that too. So my mom was like, when u were little and u don't eat, I used to give u vitamin B complex to increase ur appetite, why not give d dog b complex

Lol and behold, I bought b complex, grind like 2 on a stew meat, mix it together, she hate her normal and left. The next thing she was following me up and down, barking anyhow, then I knew she was hungry..

Her appetite greatly increased.

Just that u go pack shiiittt tire. But she will bcom a voracious eater

Pull out a syringe without the needle. Drop a tablet of vitamin B complex. Fix the syringe back. Draw about 3 ml of water into it.
It is water soluble and will dissolve in matter of minutes. Shake it and administer it into your dog's mouth in the morning and evening.
Secondly, experiment with variety of food to know the one it likes best and stick to it. Try variety of food.
Thirdly, you don't have to break your pocket to satisfy your dog. Try home made food. Just avoid onions, garlic, chocolate, coffee, milk. Aside this, your food is good enough for your dog.
To add weight, give balance diet and make sure that calorie intake is more than the energy output.

How old is the dog? Which food have you tried?

Lol... You are just me. I have two GSDs behaving like yours. My saving grace is that they are long coat and from pedigree parents so naturally in their gene, they are big but they are chronic picky eaters. Food dey spoil for my house. I mean correct dog food. I once gave a guy along my street whose dog was starving about 10kg of booster dry food that my dogs refused eating. I wake up sometimes and throw away Jojo can food I served them but in all these, I discovered that they don't joke with chicken so I buy it now even in cartons. Two days ago I bought 20kg of chicken head and leg and it's cooling in the freezer now. I hate that picky eating habit. Each time I serve them food, I start praying for them to eat.
