Her nose still works well enough to tell I’ve slipped in food she doesn’t want.

At this point, I’ve been sitting on the floor, feeding her greasy turkey and slimy salmon out of my hands.

Whatever works, I reckon.

You can stop driving yourself crazy...everything you can possibly think, I’ve probably already tried.

This isn’t my first non-eating dog...it’s just for a different reason.

She’s a dog. I care. You’re my friend. I care.

My mind sometimes shuts down at night when I’m sleeping...so, if something pops in there.......oh never mind. You’re right. You’ve probably thought of it before me. :)

Taffi’s now so “sure” I have meds in my hand, in her food...that she’s getting leery of me. Ha! She DOES love her Cod Liver Oil though!

Go figure.

When my Gypsy was suffering with liver disease I would have to crush her tea pills and put them in gelatin capsules to get her medicine down her.

Her disease caused her not to want to eat, same as Halla. We fed her anything we could get her to eat. For several weeks it would be Junior Burgers from Sonic, then Spanish Rice from one particular Mexican restaurant, then oven-baked fish, etc. It was/is exhausting, I’m sorry you are having to go through this.
