If your Puppy has always had a good appetite, then I would be very concerned and take him to the Vet. On the other hand if he has beenfussy then it may just be another faz. All the same I would err on the side of caution and take him to the vet.Let us know how he is.

I never gave in to mine. but there again I did learn the hard way, untill I got the right advice from other dog owners, fifteen minute rule.....put food bowl down and lift it after fifteen minutes, and repeat at next meal.
If you are concerned seek vet advice.

Thank you all so so much for all of your advice, Caspers appitite seems to be returning, but i am on my 6th different dry dog food. We seem to have found one that he likes but still wont eat every morsal, its as if he has to leave half a bowl behind. We are going on holiday for 2 weeks and he is going into Kennels, I hope he will eat while we are away otherwise the kennel maid will be taking him to the vet on our behalf.
He seems to like the kibble better if its got a drizzel of fish oil, either from salmon or mackeral, (he should have been a cat!!!)
He is having two small meals a day and that seems to be enough for him, and his poo's are very regular and quite big (two a day sometimes 3) so i am not overly concerned now. He is also having a dental stix and a pedigree jumbo bone a day.
Hope you are all well, and will get back to you all when I return from spain. Once again thanks alot.
