I would give him a good quality wet food - specifically for puppies or small breed dogs - Naturediet and Natures menu are both good - JamesWellbeloved also do one now - which I would think is of good quality. Or as someone else has suggested you can try him on some chicken.

Thanks everyone for your advice.

At lunch time I couldnt cope with him being upset anymore, so I gave him one of those meaty treats and he gobbled it up. I know the vet had said not to give in, but he had not eaten for 4 days and I seriously doubted that he was going to start eating the dried stuff I was giving him.

He is more then happy to eat meat, bits of chicken etc, and will eat wet food to, so I think for now I will get him some complete wet food from the pet shop so that he is getting all his nutrients and try to encourage him to eat dry food another time.

Thanks again for the help, hopefully I will find him something this evening he will be happy to eat.

Totally agree with the above. Your vet sounds extremely unhelpful and if your puppy continues to refuse food, can dehydrate very quickly.

I would seek another opinion, before your dog gets really sick. Best of luck.

I think you have made the right decision, I really don't understand your vet, a puppy that age cannot go for very long without eating something. If it was a 'fussy' adult dog that would be a different matter.
I would do as others have advised, feed him a good quality wet puppy food. If you want him to eat the dry just gradually introduce it as he gets older.
Good luck.
