Eating

Help!
We rescued a JRT about 10 months ago. Just appeared out of nowhere. Took him in had his shots, etc and tried to go from there. Wouldn't eat for us from the getgo. Tried everything under the sun from feeding from our hands to begging! Tried several different brands, Iams, Blue, mixing dry with canned. Seemed at times we had finally found something he would eat. Then he would stop eating again. Found this web site and put him on a raw hamburger, rice and egg diet. Finally he came to eat without begging him. Now once again he won't eat. Loves people food if you give it to him, but I don't want to do that. Seems to me he gets bored with what we try to feed him. We are vegetarians and really don't have table food, but that really isn't good anyway, right? Has anyone else run into this problem, does anyone have any suggestions. My patience is running out. We love him and would never consider not keeping him. We do think he was abused, just want him to eat for us. Thanks a lot.
