| My Yorkie Baby is Not Eating..Any Suggestions? My yorkie baby KyLa over the past 3 months, I have seen a drastic change in the way she is eating. She is 4 years old and has been on dry food and soft food mix or simply just dry food "Science Diet" for all her years. All of a sudden she is consuming less of her food. I took her to the vet they ran blood work and they said everything was normal except her glucose levels were low at 74%, hence the vet suggested that I give her more NutriCal to boost her levels. Overrall she still isn't hardly eating which I stressed to the vet, so he recommend that I change her diet (feed). I did alot of research and change her diet two weeks ago to "Wellness Super 5Mix Small Breed", still no great results. Please note, I have mixed her food with soft food as well and I'm not getting anywhere. 1. Can anyone recommend me to another vet (North Dallas area), I'm thinking I need a second opinion 2. Can anyone provide me with any insight if they have come across this same problem with their fur babies, if so what were your solutions. Thanks. |

| I had some finicky eaters and a few years ago I started feeding them a raw diet and now everyone wolf down their food. I feed them Primal pre-made raw right now and they love it. Good Luck.

| Have you run a Bile Acid Serum test yet? This indicates liver function. Alot of Liver Shunt dogs don't want to eat because it makes them feel sick. |
