Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Lycan hasn't been eating much since 2 days ago. He is 4 1/2 months old now and 58lbs. I give him 1lb meal 3 times a day. He usually finish all his food and wants more. But since two days ago, he only grab a few bites of his breakfast and lunch. He will still eat his dinner of chicken quarters though. Yesterday was the same. This morning he only ate a few bites of chicken mince. For lunch, I give him some kangaroo chunks and chicken mince. He took a sniff and walk away. I am getting worried here. It's not like him to pass on food.

He just drop his left fang tooth last night. Do you think teething is causing him to not eat that much? Or is he getting picky with food?

Ghost went through a bit of a hunger strike around the same age, and we attributed it to teething. Keep an eye on him, and as long as he is otherwise acting normally he's probably fine. If you see him become lethargic or anything else abnormal, then take him to the vet. Ghost will go through periods where she turns up her nose at food for a couple days, and she wouldn't eat her kibble at all when I took her up to my parents house a couple weeks ago.

I think if he's teething that could be a big part of him not eating. He might just be sore. I'd say as long as he's eating at least something, and is staying hydrated..I wouldn't worry too much.

He always has a 3lb meal per day. Between these a day 3 days, I would be lucky to get him to eat 1.5lb a day. I'll just keep an eye and see how it goes. I'm just worry because he is a Mal just will just woof down his meal when given. If you don't give his meal on time, he will keep talking until I realise it's meal time. So for me, it's unusual if he don't eat.
