| My
dog has been on dry food all his life; I leave it down for him in his bowl all
day whilst I am out at work. I have tried feeding him the raw meaty bones but
he just leaves them in his bowl and does not seem interested. What can I do? |
Dogs
that are graze fed (food left down all day) are often the ones that are a bit
fussier about eating their raw meaty bones to begin with. They have become accustomed
to deciding when they eat their food and their digestive systems have learnt that
food is always there and never really feel a sensation of being hungry. Also bear
in mind that a lot of the commercial dry foods contain sugars which your dog may
have got addicted to and he will need to detoxify the sugars from his system before
his pallet will become accustomed to raw food.
As the dog's pack leader,
it is your job to provide its meal and your dog needs to learn that when you put
food down he must eat it. Wild dogs that hunt and kill prey, eat their meal there
and then as they know another predator will come and take it if they do not eat
it straight away.
Therefore I would advise that your dog's feeding habits
need to be changed as well as the diet.
Try fasting your dog for 24 hours.
Leave him plenty of water but let his digestive system digest all remains of the
dry food diet. Then let him feel hungry as this will kick start his digestive
system into gear and his body will start to produce the right digestive enzymes
in order to prepare for his next meal and he should take his meal without any
fuss when he is hungry enough.
Do not feed Raw Meaty Bones from a bowl.
It is important that we also stimulate the dogs mind and fulfil his hunting instincts,
so try to recreate the natural hunt as much as possible by throwing his raw meat
out onto your grass and then leave him to it. Do not fuss around your dog at feeding
times, any anxious feelings you are feeling will be transferred to him and he
will pick up on this and want to eat later on when you are not around.
To train your dog to eat when you want him to eat, throw his RMB down and leave
him to it. If after 5 minutes he has not eaten it, then pick up the meal, wrap
up and return to the fridge. Feed him again at next meal and continue to do this
until he gets the idea that when you throw down food he must eat. He will soon
get the hang of it.
