Poor Poppy! Anorexia can be a general sign of many illnesses such as parvo, distemper, systemic illness, infection, inflammation, or injury. I'm concerned that she has been out in public with only one shot, and she could have picked up something serious. I would take her into a vet first thing in the morning to get checked out. Best of luck.
