| Pregnant - Not eaten for 3 days! Hi ....my Maisey is not eaten her food. She has not eaten for 3 days,just pickedat her biscuits. Ive tried boiled chicken,meat but she just is not interested. She is 4 weeks pregnant but i have never experienced this with not wanting her food before. Her teeth are fine. ~Any suggestions to coax her to eating her food, or do you think its the pregnancy? |

| If she has not eaten for 3 days then you need to get her to a vet ASAP. Something could be very wrong. Her unborn litter needs nutrients that she will provide from her food intake and your little momma needs a quality puppy food to eat. Let us know what's going on. Eagerly awaiting your post..................... |

2+2=4 X the Love ♥ Donating Member | I always feed my girls a mixture of dry puppy food and can puppy food. Mix well moisten with a bit of water if needed to coat all of the dry food. You should always start you girls on puppy food starting form day one of mating. They need the extra calcium in their diet to produce healthy pups and also help with milk production.

| If any of my dogs had not eaten for three days, pregnant or not, but most assuredly if pregnant, I would be at the vet's first thing. Better safe than sorry.

| I home cook and if even ONE of my little "piglets" refused to eat even one meal, I'd be going down to the Vet. with her. It sounds like something is wrong with your little girl that needs immediate Vet. care. Take her ASAP!
