So what do we do? Well, we need to get these new scents added to your dog’s food category. When a dog rejects dinovite on their food, it contains some ingredients (with their foreign scents) that may not be in your dog’s food category. So what happens when a scent is encountered that’s not in any of their known food categories? What happens is a type of confusion that tells them not to eat the item. Remember, your dog can smell things we don’t even understand, they operate in a different world. Our dogs go through their lives sniffing then eating new things and slowly increasing the variety of what is “on the menu” so to speak, a “food category”. Your dog becomes accustomed to this family of ingredients with their specific scents. Many of our dogs eat the same dog food day in and day out with all the same ingredients. When a dog rejects a food item, it is not taste. ![]() Let’s face it, dogs will eat some pretty disgusting things like garbage, feces, dead animals and dirty diapers, to name a few. When one of our dogs rejects a food item, it looks like he doesn’t like the taste but something else is going on. Dogs see the world around them largely through smell. ![]() Simply put, dogs have a “smell oriented” brain, hundreds of thousands times more sensitive to smell than our brain. This is frustrating! What do you do? First off, it may help to understand what’s going on inside your dog’s brain. So, your dog won’t eat his food when you add the Dinovite? In fact he sniffs the food then turns and walks away.
