Yeah i would talk to the vet for sure. Sometimes dogs just go through spells of being picky eaters. Does he seem healthy otherwise?

We go to the vet if Keeps misses 3 meals in a row. Sometimes he will skip a meal if he's feeling really hot, but a few days is of major concern.

Is he having normal BMs? Vomiting? Will he eat treats?
