1. Check physical condition
Consider whether the dog is not eating due to illness. It can be seen from several aspects. The first is poor energy, the second is shortness of breath, the third is slightly closed eyes, and the fourth is reluctance to move. At this time, you might as well take him to see a doctor.
2. Check the food
Check whether the food has deteriorated or rotted, or has other odors. Because a dog's nose is particularly sensitive, if the food spoils, it will notice it earlier than humans, so it may refuse to eat.
3. Change dog food
Sometimes dogs will get bored easily if they eat a kind of dog food for a long time. Just like people, they will get tired of eating big fish and meat often, and they also want to eat some vegetables. At this time, parents can make some homemade dog food for their dogs and put some foods that dogs usually like to eat in it. This can also effectively increase the dog's appetite.
4. Eat Xiaoshi tablets
Sometimes parents feed their dogs too much dog food, which can easily cause dogs to accumulate food. Once this happens, the dog will become particularly devoid of appetite because he is not hungry. If this continues for a long time, parents can give their dogs some digestive tablets to increase their gastrointestinal motility, and they can also appropriately reduce the amount and frequency of feeding.
5. Internal deworming
Sometimes dogs don’t eat, and there may be parasites in their bodies. This is a situation that occurs in many dogs. If there are too many parasites in the body, it will easily lead to a poor appetite and even severe malnutrition. At this time, parents can test the dog’s poop and, under the guidance of a veterinarian, give the dog an anthelmintic drug.
