Good to hear that everything is getting better! Nothing more worrysome that a finicky puppy. I took home my Benjamin when he was 6 weeks only because his momma had eaten something and had to have surgury to remove a bowel obstruction. Some things that I learned:

I always keep some nutri cal (or karo syrup in a pinch) on hand. Yorkies sent home too early really need to make sure that they are feed regularly. Sometimes sitting down with them and putting a little on your finger helps wet the appetite. My rule is if they wont eat for one day (12 hrs or so) they get a little karo. Better safe than sorry.

Also, playing with them and making mealtime fun can help (yes I have growled and acted like I was eating his food, lol)
