So my new lab is a picky eater. I have tried 3 different foods and she just sniffs and walks away. The only way she will eat is when my wife poured leftover turkey gravy on her food..........tonight I brought home eukanuba lab formula and she sniffed it then ate a piece the walked over to her blanket and dragged it over her bowl! :help: Any advice on picky eaters?

What was she eating before? Did you change her to something else? Could also be a new environment is what is putting her off some. I would pick a good quality food and stick to it. She will probably come around in a day or two.

She was eating dog chow before but she won't eat that either. She finally ate some eukanuba last night maybe she is starting to relax.

She is probably stressed over the move - new owner, new surroundings, etc.... Give it some time, she will eat when she gets hungry.

Put down the food. if she picks at it and walks away put the food away. She'll eat when she's hungry . and learn dinner time is just that. Don't leave food out for her to eat on her time.
