My dog will only eat from my hand...

Does he have a collar and tags? Is his bowl metal?

My dog Cody was like that for a while..until I refused, and he figured he'd have to do it himself lol. He also won't sleep anywhere except his kennel! He'll pace the house, try out the chair, floor, sofa...then come and whine at me to put him in the kennel..it's his "safe" place I guess!

Yes he has a collar and tags, and no his bowl is plastic. It's this one: http://www.petsmart.com/product/inde...uctId=11924589

I was going to say that if it was metal on metal, that it would not make him want to eat any more

Yeah I imagine that would be annoying to him but that's not the problem
