Zero Refuses to Eat Her Puppy Food :/

Hello all,

So i went away for a long weekend and let my fur-baby in the capable hands of my partner. On my return i find that Zero refuses to eat her food. She has previously wolfed down her food, and often tried to at our older dogs food too. ( I supervised feeding time and made sure she never got any as its a different brand).

I couldn't work out what was wrong until my fella confessed that he'd ran out of treats for her and so had been giving her a bite of the older dogs food as a treat.

Now she i'll pick one or two bites of her food and wait/push the older dog out the way to eat his food! I'm guessing she thinks he's getting a big old bowl of treats

The food he's on is senior food so not suitable for her. And i don't really want to move her from her current food as she seems to be doing really well on it.

My question is, if i buy a can of puppy food. Would it be ok to mix a teaspoon in with her dry food to encourage her to eat? Or should i just find a different brand of dry food all together and hope it agrees with her?

Thank you

 

I took the plunge and bought a little tray of wet food. Mixed it in and she wolfed it down, locked her bowl clean!

I don't mind keeping up with mixing the food together, as long as she eats, grows and is healthy. Thank you
