Sometimes their personalities and appetites change while pregnant. If you don’t already I would try to put her on puppy food. Puppy food has more calories and nutrients to help nourish a pregnant dogs body during pregnancy and while nursing. If she still won’t eat puppy food then you may want to try some boiled chicken (no bones) and rice. If she still doesn’t want this food or her appetite doesn’t pick up, I would have your vet take a look at her. Your vet can make sure she is handling the pregnancy okay. Your vet may want to check her bloodwork and give her some fluids if she is dehydrated. I hope this helps!
