So I have a new foster to adopt(Non GSD) , that we got yesterday. I decided to start him off on raw as we are almost positive we are keeping him and we didnt know what food he was on before. but he wouldnt eat it. Just stared at it. Licked it a couple times. I got him to take a bite but he would bite gently and just let it fall out of his mouth. I have NEVER seen a dog not go nuts for raw. He does have a low food drive though. So I ended up just giving a bowl of kibble. Is there anything I can do to encourage him to eat raw? Any tips/tricks for picky eaters?
Thanks!
