Here are some of the most common reasons.

They’re Fussy Eaters

Yup, sometimes your pooch is just being a prima donna. They might develop a taste for steak and turn their nose up at chicken, or vice versa.

They’re Depressed

Your furry friend can also get the blues, and lose interest in their food as a result. Usually, they’ll also become less playful and active if this is the case, and their sleep schedule will change.

They’re Anxious

An anxious dog can inadvertently become an anorexic dog as stress levels can cause a decided drop in appetite.
