    I appreciate the brainstorming. He has been like this his whole life. First very visit was at 8 weeks old due to not eating for the previous week.

    He has several types of dog bowls and plates. He refuses to eat outside of the house, much to the betterment of his trainer. I eat all meals indoor of him, and will pretend to be excited and take bites of his food and let him smell my breath before offering it to him. I will also give pieces of his food like bits of chicken to our cats to try to show him it is okay.

    On his last birthday party he had a dog friend over. Both were given dog doughnuts from a pet bakery. He gave his doughnut to the other dog to try to barter for more play…

        Sadly he is. He plays with the neighbors dogs every several weeks, but definitely needs a sibling. Unfortunately the plan was to get a fence and then a sibling for him, but the fence money was spent 20x over on medical bills. Currently waiting on city permit to get a partial fence up to get him area to be off leash outside.
