Thank you for submitting your question regarding Mili. Unfortunately, there are many reasons that a dog will not eat. Pain and nausea are some of the most common causes. I recommend that she sees her veterinarian to determine the cause of her problem. In the meantime, you can try adding warm water to her kibble or offering canned food to try to entice her to eat. I hope this information helps!
