Default Picky Puppy

I recently purchased a Yorkie puppy from a breeder in Florida while I was on vacation there. I live in Canada and Bella is 11 weeks old. The breeder had her on Iams Eukanuba and ground chicken, as well gave her nutrical. I bought that food here and did the same and after a day she would not eat it, so I tried canned food as well, she would eat it and then stop. So I bought Arcana small breed dog food and she ate that for a couple of days then stoped. This is a high quality food, and is made locally and has no by products. I have two cats and I feed them Eagle Pack Hollistic, and they do great.
So now I am feeding her by spoon just to make her eat, now I have read blogs on here that say they need to learn how to eat, but if we are eating food on the couch, she smells it and wants to get our food, and yesterday I dropped a tiny piece of roast beef and she ate it, so I think she knows how to eat but she is picky, any help on what to do with this little girl would greatly be appreciated.
I weigh her daily and she is 1 lb 13 oz.
Thanks,
Kathleen
