Try using the recipe we used when our picky little eater came home from her spay surgery. It's a mixture of baby cereal and strained baby meat. We got it from one of the threads on here, from someone's breeder. You can put it in the syringe and dispense it into the corner of her mouth. Our puppy started to like it so much she licks it voluntarily off the syringe.

1/2 cup half-and-half (or goat's milk which is easier to digest)
1/2 cup instant baby rice cereal
1 whole jar of strained baby meat (like Gerber's), anything but turkey
1 tsp. Karo syrup (or pancake syrup if no Karo is available)

Just warm up the half-and-half, mix in the cereal until it thickens, stir in the jar of meat and karo syrup. If it is too thick, you can thin it out with a little water. We usually keep it in the fridge and warm up small portions in the microwave to lukewarm.

Good luck. Hopefully this will get her past the night and she'll be fine tomorrow.
