I’m sorry George isn’t eating well. The others have given you good suggestions of things to try. I have never dealt with a picky eater. I do give my girl one Pepcid in the evening because she was having wet burps from the acid. Maybe something for you to try. I like his name by the way. That is my dad’s name. I hope your boy starts eating better.

I have not received the tLi results yet.
George was diagnosed with EPI in May of 2018. He eats 2 cups, twice a day of Purina Pro-Plan Lamb for Sensitive Skin and Stomach. He gets 1 tsp of Pantenex per meal and food is incubated for 30 mins. He also gets 2 B12 capsules with intrinsic factor from Wonderlabs and a probiotic.

I agree - I would call the vet first thing Monday - the TLI test results usually come back within just a few days - as it's been much more than that they should be back.
Madelon, owned by DOC. DOC dx EPI 5/2015 = TLI < .4, B12 406; Folate >24. DOC taught me so much and together we battled and overcame EPI, food sensitivies, environmental allergies but we lost the cancer battle. DOC was dx with hemangiosarcoma 5/2022 and crossed the rainbow bridge July 24, 2022. He is and always will be the love of my life, my soulmate, my heart dog.
