That's what Chanel weighed when she was sick - it's really scary when they won't eat -

the one trick I used to do ...with all 3 of my girls... is throw a little food on the floor near their dish - if your puppy is feeling good enough - she might go for that and eat a little....I don't know why they like that, but it really works - I do it for my cocker cause she has an underbite and had a hard time grasping food ... plus doesn't like her face in a dish ...

Maybe it's worth a try ? or put the food on a flat plate ?
