Both my Chis were/are bad eaters, Alice had to be hand fed for a few weeks, now
eats well and Monte is a sloow semi interested eater. If he gets his meal late
he won't eat, won't eat treats, canned food, pnut butter, chicken or steak
while in his crate. How big/old is Blacky, with a healthy dog I would let it go
hungry for a couple of meals. I leave the food down for 15 minutes and if it is
not eaten I pick it up and feed again at the regular meal time. I have to feed
Monte on the couch with me next to him, if I walk away he follows me. But a dog
from a shelter often has a separation anxiety issue.
