When we got Chanel for my Daughter we flew her from Missouri, and she arrived home in NJ about 5:00 pm, she was so distressed, she did not want to eat either, I got the nutri cal and put some in my finger and smeared it on her tongue and she would then swallow it, we did that for 2 days, I called the vet and he checked it out and she was fine, just needed sometime to adjust. I hope your baby starts eating soon, I know how worrysome can this be for you and the baby.. best of luck.. you gotten great advise here.. hugs, CArmen in nj |
Try Gerber Chicken meal, its for babies but puppies love it too. Rocky had it till he was 19 weeks old. Most Supermarkets have it. |
Try this I had the same problem with a little male. As hard as it is you just have to force feed them. What I thought worked best was a combination of Baby Rice Cereal (the first type that you feed babies) with a few drops of Karo syrup. Also if you get those baby hot dogs that come in the baby food jars (try feeding the baby hot dogs too) you can add some of the juice to the mixture. Mix it all up and put it on your finger and put it on the roof of her moth. You can also use a syringe. Any kind of protein baby food. If all else fails see if you can find: Freeze Dried 100% Beef Liver Treats for Dogs.Pro-Treats. I get mine from Pet Extreme. It's a cardboard container with pictures of dogs on it. My dogs do anything for these treats and it use to be the one thing my little one would eat. It's %100 protein, and not enough for the to be one alone but it puts something in their stomach. You can also go to your pet store and ask for samples of different dog food and just try them all out. Also buy the puppy formula mixed with the baby cereal. |
okay guys. i'm back for an update. i was so stressed out over sasha not eating. we had to force feed her with the syringe yesterday afternoon after the vet. took 45 mins to do because she fought with all her 2lb 8oz might! :( it was awful. later that evening she saw me eating yogurt and this was also around the time i needed to try to feed her again. i remembered the yogurt comment so i gave her some...she ate it all up. i was so happy and i praised her so well. then came time for her food. i was preparing to go to the store to get baby food and all...i'd been reading through all the comments here which have been so helpful. we put it down and she ate it...however the kicker is it's just the special dog baby food the vet gave us that has the vitamins in it. so we still have to test to see if she will eat the real food soon. i'll let you all know how is turns out. it could be anxiety. someone asked about her missing her litter. maybe? we do have a piece of the blanket from her litter with her too, so not sure. i try to give her so much attention - which is not hard at all. she's a baby so it just worries me so. i'll let everyone know how it goes. you all have been so helpful!! :) |
I would try putting the yogurt mixed with some of her food. If she likes the yogurt, why not give it a try??? :) |
