per your descretion of course.(only you know your dog+dietary plan).

But when one of mine stopped eating her food, i put some chicken broth over it. Of Course a vet visit wouldn't hurt.

I think you should try the above mentioned method, adding something to get them to wanna eat it. If they are ill though, they may not eat and you could try a check up. If everything checks out its just a stuborn dog and you may have to add a lil something yummy.

In my opinion, take her to the vet to rule out any illness, and if she's healthy - she'll eat when she gets hungry. This may sound harsh, but switching her food will only lead to tummy aches, etc and will reinforce her picky eating. I also feel that adding chicken broth, etc - while a good idea if she is a little ill - will only lead to more picky eating. Again - this is just my opinion.
