Dog won't eat from his bowl on the floor

[squeaver]

All of a sudden, my dog (6 yo Tibetan Terrier) won't eat from his bowl when it's sitting on the floor. I put it under some books and he's fine. Also he's happily drinking from his water bowl, on the floor

Other than that, all is normal - happy, energetic, not off his food, pooing fine etc.

Is he just being a fuss-pot or is there anything I should be worried about?

He is maybe feeling a bit stiff or a bit of dust swept past and spooked him like my dog he now has his bowls on an upside down basin and eats fine he is 8 so the vet reckons it might be middle age aches and pains

There were a couple of dangerous looking leaves hanging around there for a while...

The leaves probably did it..
One of mine only eats off the floor, he’s clever though if there’s no floor food from the others he spits his out onto the floor first. We no longer have a white rug.

All fine today! It must have been the dreaded leaves. Bloody dog.

Dogs are so weird

Have u tried feeding it to him a different way. A lick mat as an example or maybe a kong?

Never heard of a lick mat, but will look into it if it happens again, thanks.
