9mos my old golden retriever will not eat dog food … pls help?
whenever this happens, I feed him rice and pork. after 5-6days only he would stop to eat rice and pork but also, I have him back IAMS dog food to go and yes, he would again eat dog food. Is this is a normal routine?
Goldens are known, very clever, and your proof of this. He has you trained. 
Your dog has learned that when it long enough holds, you will him to eat something else dog. Its ok for a meal here and there to jump so do not worry if it does not always want to eat his meals. If your dog does not care to eat for more than a day or two, that the start if you could. What you need is to pick a high quality dog food. Iams is not a high high quality food, and I do not blame your dog would not eat. If you can pick out your dog food, you have to do is to hold. You will retrain him Using tough love. Put his bowl down to the meals, leave them for 20 minutes, then bring them back if he's eaten or not. No snacks or nothing until the next meal. Again, you put dog's bowl down for 20 minutes, picking it up when the time expires, whether he ate or not. Repeat. A healthy dog will not starve himself, and he will soon come to the point that he better eat what is before him when his before him, or he would be hungry until the next meal. Here is how your to find a high quality food for dogs, I do not recommend puppy food for puppies. Why? Explain why large breed puppy food is bad for puppies, especially in young animals, it contains more protein than needed WAY. It causes rapid growth, rapid growth leads to future bone and joint problems. Feeding high quality in all phases of food is to promote a desired slow growth and thus lessen the chances of bone and joint problems later. Puppies should grow up slowly, not shooting up like weeds. In my opinion, "puppy" food should only be extra protein fed to pregnant and lactating dogs, all of which can actually use, and calcium. Nothing you find in a grocery store is a good meal. High-quality food can in large pet store chains to find, or online. A few foods I like are Nutro Natural, Innova, Innova Evo and Cannidae. There are other high quality dog food. Here is how to spot: A high quality food is or have little or no fillers such as corn, wheat, soy. These are not very digestible for dogs, and are often food related allergens. As you can see were corn flour in the first few ingredients, they are not of high quality food. Foods list ingredients by content, with the active ingredient it contains most of the Tip. A high-quality food does not contain BHT, BHA or Ethoxyquin, these are chemical preservatives that have been linked to cancer. A high-quality food not contain any kind of by-products. Meat dishes are ok, as long as the source of the meat is listed as Chicken Meal. A high-meat diet should be at least have the first ingredient. and are made from human grade ingredients. Foods that are not with human grade ingredients often their ingredients from less than desirable sources such as meat from animals that were euthanized sick, or. There is another diet option other than dog food. Some people choose to feed a raw diet. These dogs are the raw meaty bones and offal. However, it is not as simple as throwing a few chicken bones in a bowl everyday. If you feed this kind of food, do much more research first. To know the change to this diet without knowing what you can do to lead nutritional problems for your dog. I give you a few links as a starting point of research if you are interested in the diet, that type.
