Yes - it can be a lot of things.
The heat certainly is one.
Also - does your dog get treats between meals (a few of these go a long way for our tiny little pups).
And - I can't tell you how finicky my dogs are (a Bichon and a Yorkie). They drive me nuts. I literally try to starve them to get them to eat dog food -- and sometimes it works.
But - even in spite of my trying to get them hungry so they'll eat their dog food, they somehow manage to stay fat and sassy (and happy, healthy, and affectionate) --- so somewhere they're getting enough to stay fat and healthy. (Must be all my neighbors who feed them.)
Even though sometimes I think my dogs are eating very much - I judge their health on their weight and the way they behave.
Good luck!
