    How nice of you to buy your dog such a fancy new bowl. He's so unapreciative - LOL! I think it might be just a matter of time until he gets used to it. But have no fear he won't starve to death, just leave his food in his bowl and when he gets hungry he will eat it. I'd say he's just one of those dogs who doesn't like change.

    Just another thought - Is the tag from his collar banging on the bowl when he eats? If it is maybe he's getting a bit of a fright hearing that sound when he's never heard it before eating from his other bowl.

    it was on sale, so not that nice of me Lol.

    It might be his tag...didn't think of that. Will try and remember to take his collar off tonight and see if that makes a difference. He did have his old bowl for 2 1/2 years so might just take him some time to get used to something different.

    Turtleschell- isn't that funny about the identical water bowls! He will even eat dried fruit (thanks to DD chucking it off her highchair..lol) so was a bit of a shock to see him not eat at all!
