Hi Whitney, what kind of food and how much are you feeding him? Treats?
He's not eating the entire bowl because it's too much food for him, not because he has a short attention span. You cannot go by the guidelines on dog food bags, they are notoriously off, usually suggesting way too much. Feed him 3 times a day and when he walks away from his bowl, pick it up and offer a bit less at his next meal, until he is eating eagerly. Then you'll have to adjust upwards as he grows, based on how he looks/feels/acts. You will find many past discussions on feeding puppies if you search this forum. Avoid a lot of treats, his stomach is little. I use Cheerios with young pups.
You can start with 1/2 the amount, if he leaves it pick up and offer the same amount next meal ( he'll be hungrier ) and stay with that amount until he's eager. When he's eager go up in quantity a little bit at the following meal and see if he eats it all eagerly, until you find what works for him. Don't coax him to eat, he is healthy and chances are that, in time, he'll' want more food than he can have, not less...:-) BTW I love his natural polka dot under-ware ( in the photos you posted )
My guess is he'll be undersized if the breeder is intentionally breeding tiny corgis.
