Unhappy A yorkie slave

Wow! What a great Forum! I have been browsing Yorkie Talk for awhile before we got our baby and have found it to be filled with such useful information. Now I check it everyday for every little question that I have.

Well here is my first post/question. We started to mix Nomi's food with another brand. She stopped eating it so we went back and gave her the breeder's brand of dog food and she refused to eat that too. Of course as a new yorkie mama, I became concerned after she missed 3 meals in a row, so I started to hand feed her. Well that worked too well. Now she'll only eat if we put it in our hand. We have been going through this for about 3 days now. Yesterday I tried to refuse to hand feed her and she didn't eat from 6 am to 5 pm. I got nervous because I didn't want her to get sick from not eating at all, so I once again gave in and have become her royal feeding slave. Is there anyway to break Nomi of this habit without damaging her health?
