our dogs have done this a few times in the past, first time we found food was damp and slight mould in it, another time the food had changed slightly but all dogs turned there nose up at it, we changed supplier and had no problems since

try giving him a bit of variety, chicken, pasta, sardines in tomato sauce, mince, dry food, butcher of cuts, rabbit, the list can be endless.

all your doing by giving him a heap of different things is educating his tastebuds, if the dog never got anything else only dry , it would not know that there is anything else out there,,get him back on the regular stuff, never had a dog starve himself yet,,Sounds like hes developed a taste for something else,,as the man said earlier, keep giving what your giving as long as its a good quality feed, the stand off is him or you, who cracks first,,best of luck with him,,
