What to give a dog to whet its appetite?

If your pet has lost interest in eating or is experiencing a decreased appetite, it's important to identify the problem. Here are some suggestions that might help:

  • Change the food: Try changing the brand or type of food you feed your dog. Some dogs can get bored of eating the same thing every day, and a change in flavor variety could stimulate their appetite.
  • Keep a regular schedule: Try feeding your dog at the same times every day. Dogs tend to have routines and can anticipate their meals if fed at consistent times.
  • Avoid treats between meals: If you give your dog too many treats or snacks between meals, they could get full before their main meal. Limit treats and only give them at specific times.
  • Warm the food: Gently warming the food can release aromas and make it more appealing to your dog. Make sure it's not too hot and your dog won't burn it.
  • Add wet food: If your dog is used to a dry diet, you could try adding some high-quality wet food to their diet. The texture and smell may be more appetizing.
  • Exercise before eating: A little exercise before eating can stimulate your dog's appetite. A short walk or gentle play session can help.
  • Manage stress: Stress and anxiety can affect a dog's appetite. Make sure your dog is in a calm and comfortable environment.
  • Consult your veterinarian: If your dog continues to not eat or shows signs of discomfort, it is important to seek the advice of a veterinarian. There may be a health issue that requires medical attention.

From Kunkay, we recommend Superbrownkun, a nutritional supplement that completes, balances, and enriches your dog or cat's diet, providing minerals, vitamins, and fibers that improve your furry friend's coat and immune system.

Remember that every dog ​​is different, and what works for one may not work for another. It's always best to consult a veterinarian for specific guidance on your pet's diet and appetite.
