Jenni, I went through the exact same thing. I tried every food on the market. Maggie even got where she didn't even want human food. I made sure she got her Nutristat twice a day. I was told if you give them too much Nutristat or Nutrical, it ruins their appetite. I turned to YT memeber for help too. I was told to pick ONE good dry food and stick with it. Put it down and walk away. I was told that they WILL NOT STARVE. YT member were right. Make sure she gets her Nutrical until she decides to eat. I too had to face TOUGH LOVE. Broke my heart to see Maggie not eating, but I didn't have a clue what else to try. She too quit eating Bil Jac. I bought her Royal Canin 33 Mini Puppy. She loves it. I started out by hand feeding it to her, while she was sitting on my lap. She does prefer flat plates, versus bowls. So, she now eats her kibbles off of a saucer. I do however give her 1/2 container of Ceasar's Puppy food, sprinkled with some grated cheese for breakfast. Eating Ceasar's for breakfast, seems to get her little system jump started for the day. The rest of the day is dry food only. I'm in the process of mixing 1/2 Royal Canin Puppy with 1/2 Royal Canin Yorkie Adult. I no longer give her ANY human food. A couple of times, her tummy has been upset. When that happens, I give her 1/2 tsp. Pepto Bismol, and she is fine.

Good Luck. Trust the member here. She WILL eat when she is hungry.
