Question
hi i have a king charles who is 9wks,i have him a week now and he is not eating alot,the first 2 days a brought him home he ate well,but now he seems to have went of his food an i dont know if i should change it or not he is on royal canin junior,the breeder was feeding him it soaked in hot water,i have tried giving him it this way an also dry but he doesnt seem to like it.

Answer
Hi Judy,
You might want to add some human food to his food to entice him to eat. You could mix a little minced beef in with his food which would help. I would soak it in hot water anyway, but put something tasty in it.
Let me know if you need any more help!
