my baby gizzie just got spayed yesterday she is a 7.5 month yorkie and today she is just whimpering and she hasnt eaten at all this morning and last night i had to force feed 3 chunks of canned foodand she wouldnt chew it poor thing it just fell right back out of her mouth. i wouldnt be so worried but she is only 2.4 lbs and is prone to hypoglycemia. any suggestions to get her to eat?

Have you tried giving her some nutrical just to get something on her stomach? Is there a special treat she loves that she might be more interested in than food? (Mine will kill for Granny Smith apples!). Did the vet give her any pain medication? She may be uncomfortable and thus uninterested in food. Good luck with her -- it's so hard to see them in distress.

Boil or bake a breast of chicken and feed her. She's just hurting right now and has been without food for too long.
