    I always mix warm water with the dry kibble I feed (they also get a raw meal each day). By mixing the kibble with warm water, it makes a bit of "gravy" with most kibbles. I do not let it siak for vary long though, usually less than a minute or two before feeding it.

    Your dog is training you instead of you training your dog. Put the food down for 10-20 minutes and then pick it up and don't offer food or treats until the next meal. Do this for several days if needed. They will not starve themselves. I always add water to my dog's food. Also, constantly changing foods could lead to a picky eater.

    I got her to eat some dry kibbled softened with warm water and with a little bit of chicken broth on it and she gobbled it up. Before that I had gotten her to eat a handful of dry kibble. I think I am going to just do what everyone is saying and eventuallys he will eat when she gets hungry. I have taken her to the vet and there is no health reason why she isn't eating.
