| refusing to eat hELP I have two female yorkies, One is 9 years old, spayed the other is a 2 year old 3 lb unfixed rescue with a liver shunt. We have had the rescue about 11 months. Recently the little rescue is refusing to eat. We've changed foods hoping that would spark her interest. We've been to the vet and all was well. I think this a fight over who will be top dog however we can't wait it out as the rescue is so small she can't afford to lose weight. Any ideas? |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Have you tried canned food. Most of them will eat canned. I am feeding mine Weruva its pricey but they love it and have done well on it. One of mine has MVD and it has been fine for her. Good luck.

| Have you tried feeding them in separate rooms? Also try a food that you can sprinkle a little warm water on, that makes the scent more tempting. Mitsi got that way after I had her spayed and We switched her to wellness food and she goes crazy for it. |

| It would be good to try giving your pup some cooked chicken breasts, they love usually love chicken. In the mean time make sure that you are giving the pup nutri-cal to supplement meals since they are prone to having hypoglycemia. |
