His longest holding out has been 4 days, by that time he made himself sick, throwing up everywhere. I've taken him to the vet and they said he's fine because he's still drinking. I'm just going to give him the same stuff he goes back to, the blue buffalo wilderness wet food and the blue basics kibble. I'll switch the flavors up but I'm tired of trying all different kinds of food. It's in the bowl, if he wants it, he can eat it. If not it's going in the fridge, if he wants to hold out for the good stuff so long that he gets ill, then fine. But there's no "good stuff" as I haven't fed him chicken & rice since then... Or any table food since then.

Haha I don't know, he's been an angel since I posted this. We give him a can of wet food in the morning and leave his kibble out for the day. He's been going back consistently every night for his kibble at "dinner". It's like he knows I was getting frustrated. I hope that he just needs a mix of wet and dry, or maybe he develops a routine again. Or at least if we can develop a routine to follow. I think that he just needs a variety. We're thinking about putting him on a dry food rotation of two or three flavors that we know he likes, and two flavors of canned. That way it's always different. When he goes on food strike we limit the treats too, otherwise he'll go even longer without eating.

I want to be sure he's getting all the vitamins and nutrients he needs too.

I tried raw food that you buy at the pet store, nope, he won't even lick it

Hi guys, I'm having issues with getting my 10 month old Siberian to eat. No surprises there, he's so finicky it dives me up the wall. The only thing he's interested in is human food, which we don't give him any of. I've been thinking it might be more beneficial to make his meals for him. I've literally tried all kinds of kibble, wet foods, enticing him and nada. I really don't know where to start so any advice would be great. Thanks

Glad Ghost is doing okay! Ender frustrates me too with his eating habits, sometimes he will scarf down his food, other days he turns his nose up at it. Then when he gets bored of the food/flavor he goes on a hunger strike to the point of being really sick and throwing up until we figure out what he wants. Whether it be dry food only, wet food only, wet and dry mixed, different flavor of kibble, different flavor of wet food, mixing two kinds of kibble... Then he goes back to normal eating his kibble like nothing happened. Sometimes I have to crush up a biscuit and sprinkle it on the kibble to entice him... This all started after he was on a bland diet (boiled chicken beast and rice) for 5 days per the vets instructions since he was on meds. He wouldn't eat anything else after that... We've tried all the methods I've seen online, give him kibble and he'll eventually eat etc. Nope, not Ender... He went 5 days without touching food when I did that, he was puking and lethargic.

Hi Marc, I just did all of that. Uninstalled and reinstalled, signed in and it's still saying loading but not actually loading anything. I logged in on the computer, and things work fine on there.

Awww thank you all for the warm welcome!! I've already gotten a ton of great info that *hopefully* helps us teach our little guy!

I'm using the tapatalk app for android, I haven't been on the computer yet. I click a section and it just says "loading" but never loads. If I search or if it's a topic I've posted on/created it comes up in my subscriptions and I can view it.

Thank you! My husband loves the books, but we just had a list of names we liked which we tried out and discussed after getting our pup. Ender seemed most fitting and he seemed to respond well to it!

You SO should! They're a bit expensive $15usd or so, but totally worth it. I have some videos of him woo woo-ing with Moo Cow. I'm sure you can find them online on amazon.

And I found out photos are allowed after a few posts to prevent spam

You're welcome and thank you! Ghost is beautiful! I'm assuming that's him in the profile photo?

Lightening, we got his Moo Cow at PetSmart, it's made by Kong so it's REALLY durable, though I've had to do some minor surgery on him to sew his ear back on. It's essentially a giant squeaker in there the size of the toy. He can talk to him for hours lol...
