Hi all. It's been a bit since I've been back here but nice to "see" you. LOL

My little Wally, 3-months-old, doesn't like to eat is kibble. The only way I can get him to eat his meals is to put some in my hand, then I put a few on the floor and flick them over near him and he'll start playing with that piece. After he's done that a few times, he'll eat what I have in my hand. We do this a few times then he's done. It's like he won't eat unless he gets to play with his food first. Don't ask me why I started doing this - I suppose it was out of desperation to get some food in him any way I could. (I know, shame on me.) This morning I tried some Nutri-Stat and he ate a little more but even left some of that in his bowl! Sheesh!

I'm wondering if it's because we are doing treat-based training during the day and that's what he's waiting for. He'll eat carrots and apples. I've tried putting some cheese on his food and he might take a couple of bites, but that's all. He still seems to have plenty of energy, drinks water regularly, and has normal poops.

Is this a common puppy/corgi problem? Has anyone had this issue and been able to resolve it?

LO didn't like the bowl when I first got him home. He was scared of it. So we put the food on a paper plate or on the floor. Then I was like I'm not messing with this and just put the food in his bowl, he found it and ate it.
