| Off her food Yesterday morning Sophie decided she didn't want to eat and she is usually a chow hound. She is normally fed 3x per day as she can't go too long without food as she will barf bile. Lunch time I decided to try rice and chicken and she ate that lunch and dinner. When she goes to bed she gets a few kibbles in her bowl in the bedroom and she polishes them right off and she did that last night. I thought all was over but this morning she wouldn't even eat the chicken and rice!! She seems pretty normal except she isn't bugging for something to eat, which normally she does a lot. She was to the vets 2 weeks ago for her shots and a check up and all seemed fine so I have no clue what to think. Any ideas?

| Poor Sophie. Energy and activity levels normal? Poops okay? Drinking water? No out of the ordinary behavior? If everything else seems normal, I would check her teeth.

| yes, everything else seems normal but you may be on to something with her teeth. She had her dental earlier this year but I have noticed they look awful already and her breath is stinky and it normally is not. Guess we will have the vet take a look at them again. He did mention they looked bad when she was in 2 weeks ago for her shots and at that time he had me give her they dental chews call Oravet. They are supposed to have an enzymes to help clean her teeth and coat them to help keep them clean but after the second one she refused her food the next day and later had bright green soft poos (same color as the Oravet chews). Thanks for the advise.

| Sounds like the chew made her sick. Hopefully she will be eating by tomorrow.
