Lack of appetite

The dog will not eat and refuses food.
(Capra, 2011)

This young mixed breed has her tail between her legs and is panting; she refuses to take the food her owner offers her.

Video filmed during a behavioural evaluation. The male Staffordshire Bull Terrier sniffs the air and wags his tail as his owner puts down a bowl of food. The dog approaches the bowl walking stiffly, then sniffs the food, licks his nose, and moves away, showing the white of his eyes and licking his flews. He stops near his owner, showing lack of appetite.

Video filmed during a behavioural evaluation. The female Boxer is sitting as her owner approaches with a bowl of food. The dog's ears are folded back. She sniffs the food, and exhibits lack of appetite. When she is touched and petted with the prosthetic hand, she exhibits a facial fear display, swallows, averts her gaze, then lowers her head. When the hand touches the food bowl the dog walks away with head down, showing the whites of her eyes, then pins her ears back and swallows.
