We give her Royal Canin, and sometimes I'll put out a 1/2 cesar too (I know its crap, but she won't eat). Sometimes, she'll eat a full day's worth of food, but it is common for her to go like 3-4 days eating no more than a tablespoon or so of dry. More often than not, even the cesar sits out and dries up uneaten.
I have had to learn not to stress out about it. Trust me, I've done plenty of worrying and crying over it. She is energetic and thin but not emaciated.
What is the sucralate? Funny, when she had an upset tummy and had diarrhea, she was given a pink stuff like pepto bismol. She actually ate very well during those days she was on that medicince.
I'm hoping when we get Paris, that Chloe will be prompted to eat by the fact that another dog will be eating--you know, the competition thing. WE'll see.
