My puppy won't eat her new food but acts normal. When to worry?

Question

Can my puppy be uninterested in her food? Last night & this morning she doesn’t seem to want to eat. She goes up to sniff it then walks away. She is acting normal & playing but not eating. She was on Lil Merricks Grain Free but I had to switch her to Pro Plan Sensitive Stomach. She finished the 1st bag fine but now that she’s on her 2nd bag she’s uninterested. Idk if she is picky or something is wrong. When should I be concerned to see vet? Or should I take her anyway even though she acting ok? Pet's info: Dog | Toy Poodle | Female | spayed | 9 months and 12 days old | 5 lbs

Hello. Is she interested in any treats at all? If this is totally out of character for her, I do worry that there may be something amiss. It would not hurt to have her checked out today if possible, especially since this is a holiday weekend. Hopefully, this is nothing & she will start eating soon. Thanks for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
