Skipped Meals

Hey.
I have 4 months old siberian husky puppy. He has some appetite issue. He sometimes skip meals. I try to feed him 3 times a day. Somedays he just eat 2 or 1 meal (usually breakfast and dinner) I'd like him to eat more! He only eats 1/3 his recommended amount. He is just a puppy. I'm so worry about him.
He seems really healty btw. Always energic and playfull.

Thank you so much.

Is he losing weight ?
You're sure you're following the portion recommendations ?
I wouldn't worry unduly if he's full of energy and playful. If he wasn't getting enough food he'd be looking skinny.
If you're still worried add something tasty to make it more interesting.

Thank you for reply appreciated.
1- He is same weight as 2 weeks ago.
2- I'm sure. I give him 100gr every meal. here is recommended amounts https://www.affinity-petcare.com/adv...uppy-sensitive
3- I cant add anything his food. He has extremly sensitive stomach. I tried wet foods 3 times (bozita, tow, hills) everytime he had diarrhea.

How heavy is he?

300 grams would put him in the 40 kg weight range?

If I'm reading that right he should be on 180-300 grms and you're feeding him 300grms so not unreasonable if he's not eating it all.

You need to know which food is the best for your puppy, some dogs are picky in terms of food. If this is the case then might as well consult a vet, I will also suggest that you provide your paw supplements/vitamins. Watch his weight from time to time, I am hoping that you'll be able to resolve this issue as soon as possible.
