If you can't get enough food in her at each feeding, then you'd have to go to 6 feedings.
Severe inappetance in puppies can mean something is truly, truly wrong / going on. Remember, that 98% of dogs LOVE to eat, they just do. That's why inappetance is such a major sign of an illness in a dog.
In yorkie puppies, severe inappetance can often mean a liver shunt. If this inappetance continues, if it were me I'd be soon testing her for shunt bc if you don't and she has it, it will cause mighty damage to her...including to her brain. |
She was eating fine until after low sugar aattack and had to take her to vet... today is only a week that I have gotten her and thete has been a lot of changes in her little life...
