This could indicate that something is wrong with Roxy. Her urine is so yellow likely because she is not drinking much water. I would recommend having her seen by a veterinarian so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I would have her blood tested and her urine as well. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

    Hi Adeel! It could be Roxy's diet that is causing her to not have interest in her food. First off, curd is not an acceptable diet for a puppy. It's a dairy product, and diary causes GI upset in dogs. It's never recommended to give dairy to any dog. I would not give her curd any longer. Also, 100gms of puppy food isn't very much. She likely isn't getting enough food in her diet. Read the package instructions on her food, there will be a daily recommended allotment on it. Take that daily allotment and divide it into three equal portions, once in the morning, once in the afternoon, and once in the evening. Finally, she may not like the brand of food. Brands I recommend include Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. As for her urine being a bit yellow, you want it to be clear to light yellow. If it's a darker yellow, then she may not be getting enough water. Make sure she always has a source of fresh water, and you can give her canned puppy food or add water to her dry puppy food to get more into her diet. Good luck, I hope this helps!
