Star HELP!! NEW MOMMY 2nd X SHE BARELY EATS!!

I am a 2nd X Mommy to a Yorkie now. My first Yorkie Baby ws 6 weeks when we brought her home. She grew to be a 6 Lb yorkie,she was somthing special. She passed away in Nov, 2008, at the age of 18 years. i have 2 daughters, now 28 & 23. She was their furry sister, and my daughter that never grew up,it was a loss i cannot discribe. My husband and i swore,we could not have another....until my 23 yr old daughter decided differently/lol. This past Christmas she put a dpst on a puppy for us to choose. There were 3 in the litter, we chose the spunky one...My Star. so we are blessed to have another perfect dog. The only problem we are having is Star is 6 months and tiny. Shes 2 Lbs 6 oz. She is the most picky eater. My past Yorkie would gobble her food. Star however has tried every top brand possible. Ive tried mixing moist, dry, etc..she barely eats. if i hand feed her she MIGHT eat a few morsels, but im stressed and not knowing what to due. Ive litterally purchased 8 foods. Ive read the top dog food charts, and tried to find the best, but she just dont eat! My other baby suffered with skin itching,and Constant ear infections, and i dont want poor nutrients to do the same to her. PLEASE ANY ADVICE??? Im at a loss! I also just noticed her 1 ear has a slight odor starting, also any advice on cleaning it so we can avoid ear infections???? I hope I can find a healthy food she will eat, to hopefully avoid health issues. The fact that she is so tiny also worries me, as puppy this tiny must eat. Im sorry this is long, im like a Momy with a newborn after 18 years/lol Thanks all for your help,Kris (Stars Mommy)
