Rottie has suddenly gone off food, Sydney (NSW)
Last week my 7yo rottie suddenly went off his food, I have tried 4 different types of dried foods and changed brands of dog food and also offered him cooked fresh meat to still no avail. I have checked inside his mouth and found nothing, His mood is still happy but now I am becoming concerned.He also has his monthly dose of flea and worm drops, (Advocate). Any suggestions.

This is a very broad question, with many avenues of interest. There is always the possibility that he has just decided to become fussy! As he is 7 years old, I would consider buying a dry food in smaller pellets (better for aging teeth and gums), and see if that helps. I wouldn't try to change his diet to much in hope of him eating it. Dog's guts don't adjust to different foods like us. Definatly speak to your vet if the problem continues.
