Like you my vet also suggested a bland diet for a few days I'm hoping he does eat later today right now I'm just going to let him rest.
I'm so sorry for your boy! Glad he is getting better.

FYI, that 11% fat needs to be converted from a dry matter basis. It's actually MUCH higher. It's the same with canned food.

To determine the amount of protein on a dry matter basis, divide the reported amount of protein by the total amount of dry matter. Then, multiply the result by 100.

Stella & Chewy's is one of the highest premade fat foods out there. There's a few other premades that are less, but I've heard of S&C causing this problem before in Yorkies.
