My Dog hates dog food and prefers my cats “Friskies” (any flavor) he’s tried 10 brands of well known dog food, I have been mixing in friskies just to get him to eat it so it doesn’t go to waste, but I want to just buy 2 bags of friskies at this point… He is a Papillion if that matters! I am just sick of him literally starving himself before he eats it, and for the last month he after him gettign very thin I started using friskies… So is this ok if he just eats friskies!?
Ok well he did starve himself, I had to take him to the vet because he went 3 days without eating anything… and my vet said there was nothing wrong with him after a very expensive visit there was still no answer… thats when I stoped with eukenuba which he was eating for the last year… He has never gotten sick or anything from friskies, but because of his lack of eating he is getting acid build up in his stomache and now and then he just vomits out stomache acid…
He also hates rice and chicken, I do need him to gain weight so maybe cat food wont be so bad if it is fatty… I can always give him the other vitamins after the fact… The only human food he really likes is potatoes in all forms… (so mixing in human food doesn’t help me to much)
my cats food is on the fridge, I never just give him all cat food, it’s mixed in with right now the brand is Beneful… about a month ago I learned he would eat friskies after months of this struggle my cats food fell on the floor and he loved it!!! Thats when I started this half and half mix of cat and dog food, but dog food just seems like a waste of my money since he hates it!
also I am not really overly concerned he is a clueless dog, I just pour his food and walk away I don’t care to make him a 5 star meal here people, I wouldn’t care if he hated it, just I don’t need a case of the movie “Thinner” happening to my dog! It’s not like I go crazy trying to find the food either I just grab the next thing on the shelf if the last led me to the same situation, but it seems the general answer is it is fine for him to eat friskies if it’s mixed in with some other dry food, so I will just continue as I am doing and just stick with beneful/friskies mix instead of going all friskies, thank you!
