Tucker goes through these types of spells, too. Especially if I give him a bath. Then he acts like he has forgotten what the pads are for! I think he's getting back at me because he HATES baths. :x Anyway, we just keep pressing the issue, and it gets better again.
As far as breakfast goes, (and this is my fault I must admit), Tucker gets his dry puppy kibble hand fed to him----he won't touch it in the bowl. It's our morning routine: I get him up, sit on the floor with him and he plays in my lap until he realizes that he's about to bust from holding his wee-wee all night. Then he jumps off my lap and runs to his potty pad; then it's back into my lap for hand-fed breakfast. The rest of the day, he free-feeds from the bowl without a problem. :roll:
Hand feeding Tucker one meal also keeps him from being food-aggressive. I never have to contend with him growling at me any time he's eating and I touch his bowl.
