I have tried so many different foods, even cooked chicken and she just will eat only a bite or two.
I am going to get NutraCal as soon as Petco opens and give her some of that.
How do I go about getting her eating? Do I just put out a couple of different foods and FORCE myself to not worry...how long is to long for her to go without eating much??
I just lost my other Yorkie to a tragic accident and am so afraid something will happen to this baby.
Can someone give me some help her on how to get her to eat, please.

You do have a tiny one on your hands...My Sophie is also 15 wks..she turns 16 wks tomorrow.
She didn't eat at first at all...not even the canned. So I went and bought the smallest kibble out there...turned out her favorite was Royal Canin puppy. They are tiny triangles..and she eats them well...for now she is still on it and doing well.
Keep the nutrical going...offer her some boiled chicken..and keep at it...Let us know how she is doing.
