And many of the premium canned foods are fine to mix it… I happen to make my own "wet" mix and I always recommend that dry is mixed with something regardless if you make it yourself or use a good canned food.... Cause it gets pretty boring to just eat the same old dry day after day after day (In my opinion)
Won't eat out of a bowl. Any ideas?

What kind of bowl to you use?…. Do you know what the previous owner used?
He was at a very cheaply run dog kennel. He's scared of EVERYTHING so I think the food moving in the bowl when he goes to eat it probably scared him further.
It's just a plain green dog bowl.

If you think it is bothersome to him… then try putting his food on a dinner plate.. a heavy one that will not slide around the floor....... and since you are feeding him dry food (I am only guess it is dry...) maybe just use like a place mat and put the food on that... and if that works then go to maybe a dinner plate?

We had that same problem with Hailey, our Ibizan when she came to us..
She only ate of the floor ?f from our hands..
We just tryed different sort of bows (metal, plastic) and even from our bowl collection, wood, pottery etc..
Also tryed different sort of shapes, high and low.
She started to eat when we gave the food on a normal dinner plate…
After a while we changed that to a simular bowl and to a normal feeding bowl like the boys have.After a few months she ate nice and calm out of a normal bowl.
Good luck, it's sometimes hard to find out what they want

Thanks for the success story! It's encouraging!

Did the plate thing work for Mowgli, last night?

Actually, he eats out of Shango's bowl so I just went and bought him the exact same one! Problem solved!
