If cost is an issue you can wet the dog food with warm water to make it more appealing.

This dog is bragging to all the other dogs at the park how well he trained his human.

He won't starve. When he's skipped enough meals, he'll eat, OP. Just make sure he has water.

Nothing. Eventually he will get hungry enough to eat the dog foot.

He forgot that he is a dog. Remind him.

He can skip a few meals and be fine. He’ll start eating again when he gets hungry. You don’t need to pander to this.

Can you blame him? Dry kibble vs chicken? We do Farmers dog and I realize it is expensive but we dont do doggy daycare or have any grooming issue which also costs money!

How about stir dry with canned dog food for a while to get him back on the plan? Sounds like he knows how to get what he wants and it's a battle of wills.
It's hard to feed a dog a homemade diet that is truly balanced. Unless you you prepared to do everything posted at 17:09

We cut the chicken portion down a little at a time, adding in kibble in a separate pile until it was half and half. (Never mixing.) We just had to hang tough, and eventually she ate it. She now loves the kibble too.

You need to talk to your vet, but plenty of recipes online. We do a mix of veggies, quinoa or rice, a protein, tofu, chickpeas, potato (preferably sweet potato), eggs, cheese, beans.
