Default My new baby does not want to eat

I have a 6 month old yorkie weighing in at 2.5 pounds and she has no interest in her food.
I feed my older yorkie adult royal canin kibbles and she will pick at that but my vet told me she should not eat this because she needs the nutrients in puppy food. Vet also is concerned because she said she is severely underweight. She has baby teeth under her adult teeth in front so I thought this may be bothered her. My vet will not take them out until she gains weight. I had blood work done and all came back fine except for sugar a little high. I am now waiting on resuls of acid bile test to ro liver shunt. I have tried mixing kibbles with canned food as well as kibbles with Stella and Chewey's topper. I even tried mixing cat food but she does not want to eat. I am just wondering how much I should expect a tiny one like this to consume in one day. I have another 8 pound yorkie and she eats about a cup of dry daily. I would appreciate any advice that you may have.
