I have a litter of 3 7wk old pups..up until now all doing really well on weaning.
I was feeding Wainwrights wet puppy (trays) along with dry..no problems.
Today they have decided they dont want to eat anything...
tried soaking the food again...just the wet food...just the dry food..nothing.
The vet told me to stop adding the meat straight away and just let them eat the dry...but they wont.
I have an appt at the vet for them at 530, jst to make sure there isnt anything underlying...all are wormed to date aswell.
Do I need to start from scratch again?
Any advice would be great.

Hahaha, that made me laugh.
Little beggars are doing the usual Cavalier trick.... " we want you to get us something we like - and that will be different the next day"
For the sake of the new owners, pick up the food and give them nothing until the next meal only water. And if they try it on then do the same.
When you get them eating again alternate wet and dry if you like to ensure they are not too dependent on supplies of Wainwrights.
Many Thanks Tooolz, had them to the vet..all in good health, although the smallest girl needs some extra boosting ( as the vet put it).She recommended wet food mainly with a small amount of kibble in it and gradually reduce the wet until they are eating the dry...if they arent completely eating by the time they go then advise the new owners to continue...lol..fun and games. She also said to give the smallest one Ready Brek made with goats milk, she weighs 1.74kg. They definately do not like scrambled egg..thats for rolling and playing in!!
Once they are eating will do as you suggest.
Thankyou:)
