Hi everyone
I have recently re-homed a 7 year old mini-dachshund called Charlie as his old family were emmigrating. He is adorable and is slowly settling in (despite missing his old family) but he is refusing to eat his normal food. His previous owners told us that he has only eaten a specific dry food since he was a puppy but he wont eat that at all. He's eaten a little bit of chicken and ham (which he used to have as treats) but I know that he wont get sufficient nutrients from that alone and I'm really worried! I've tried mixing up the dry food with some ham/chicken but he's too smart and just ignores the dry food. Any advice would be gratefully received.
