New puppy doesn’t eat well

Q: We have had our puppy for a week now she was born in May 19th we are having a hard time getting her to eat. I have tried all the tricks she’s only eating around a small bowl of food a day. Should I try to change her food? She’s on Royal Canin starter right now

A: I am not sure how much she weighs and what volume a “small bowl” is. Also it would help to now how her attitude is. I would try another food maybe even some canned food so we can figure out if she just doesn’t like the food or whether she has no appetite. Here are some good quality foods to pick from: Natures recipe c d Iams woof soft Iams Eukanuba small bites d Royal Canin c d Pro plan savory soft Hills ideal balance c d Castor pollux organically Simply nourish c d Blue Buffalo c d Wellness c d Bil jac frozen c-can d-dry kibble
