Another thing, I would not free feed (leave food down). Offer him 3 small meals a day at the same times, pick up after 10-20 minutes and store in the fridg offer at the next mealtime.

See what your vet recommends, but I wouldn’t panic if he skips meals or is only eating a little bit as long as he is drinking water. Dogs can become depressed, give him some time to adjust. He has been through a lot.

If he is not eating or drinking anything X 72 hours, I would take him to the vet, he may need sub q fluids to prevent dehydration.
