my 7month old pup has become a fussy eater. he eats properly every alternate day and leaves a large portion of his food behind otherwise. Is this a normal tendency in dogs? how do I make him eat more regularly? His activity levels, poop and water intake are regular. no changes in that. I’m usually feeding him rice and vegetables in morning and kibbles by evening. Snacks and treats are very limited during the day.

Sometimes pets become a little fussy about food. No need to worry. Give the same portion of food everyday, same quantity in the morning and evening. To increase the appetite you can give aptiquick syrup upto 5 ml for 20 kg body weight before food.

At this age you can shift him down to 2 meals and a snack. - - Variety: You can give him some variety by using different protein sources like chicken/ egg/mutton/ fish. You can also explore some vegitarian options like paneer( if he is ok with dairy), lentils, tofu and soya. -Cooking methods Cooking methods can also be altered to help change the texture.

- Training You should also make sure you feed him strictly at a specific time, also withdraw the food if he not eating it within 10-15 mins to reduce fussy behaviour. - Note If he is not eating well despite of these changes or is exhibiting any other signs of ill health please get him examined by your veterinarian to make sure there is no other underlying reason.

Eat or Pass? 1. Human Biscuits Very often we see people feeding Parle-G and other human biscuits to street dogs and their pet dogs. But is that recommended? NO. It is not recommended to feed human biscuits to dogs and if you are feeding, you need to check for 3 ingredients- -Sugar: Not good for their health -Xylitol: Alternative of sugar, poisonous for dogs -Gluten: Harmful for their health in long run

some days ago i had my cat groomed while the groomer was cutting his tangled hair .. he accidentally cuts his skin . now it's probably infected i used mupirocin ointment on the area infected ( green blue coloured )and bandage it he was okay with its use. today when I tried to apply it nd bandage it around he was running around now it was red blue coloured so i just applied the ointment nd left it open . what am I supposed to do . nd his hygiene is not that good cause he is handicapped nd this cut is on his handicapped back right leg . he has no pain in running or walking up nd down or even cuddling but he is not letting me put on the bandage i was able to put the ointment by a lot of problem as well . he is eating well but he is not vaccinated as of now nd sometimes he vomits his food because he can't remove the licked hair from his mouth and he has and infection going on near his eyes because of the handicapped leg he has a difficulty in cleaning his face most of the time . thus i clean it
