Maybe a visit to the vet?

I can’t see how a pup can get enough protein from just cupcakes and ham.

My aunt had a finicky dog who would eat eggs. The vet had advised her to give him an egg.
 
I’ve taken her to the vet already the vet advised to hold off on cake and ham as long as possible said a dog won’t starve itself to death and I got food with peas and carrots in it to trick her into thinking it was human food but it didn’t work out
 
Most dogs like carrots, in our experience at home. Also rice with bits of chicken in it, preferably with a liittle lukewarm (not hot) gravy or consomme poured over it. Cheese omelets are a favorite with some dogs, though not with others. Does your dog drink milk?

I only give her water I don’t want to give her anything else other than dog food I want so bad for her to eat proper food that’s made for her species
 
Ours goes crazy when the pressure cooker beeps, because that means CHICKEN
 
She is very cute.
Did the vet give her a physical work up, check her teeth , and discuss a good chihuahua food with you?

Boiled chicken and rice fed three times a day to get her gut moving at the moment.
Milk contains lactose and many animals cannot digest this.
If you want to give milk, get the human lactose free milk, it is the same as the dog and cat milk sold.

Generally a dog will not eat unless it is hungry.
If it does not eat what is provided, wait some time.
Eventually the dog will eat.
 
I gave her some plain pasta and boiled chicken she ate a bit of pasta and a bit of chicken at first I thought she didn’t like it because she was spitting it out I left it in her bowl and 20 mins later I caught her eating some
 
Have you had a small dog before?

It might be that pup might just need smaller portions. He’s taking in what he needs.
 
All of my dogs are small except for my rough collie and cocker spaniel I have 3 chihuahuas and 2 shitzus and a yorkiepoo Marley, trixie, coco, sadie, tramp, mousey, Chase and lady I also have 3 cats fifi, Zachary binx and beans and 2 horses prettyboy and molly but prettyboy was stolen 😦
 
I made a Facebook called find prettyboy the profile picture is of a black and white miniature gypsy cob if you could share his post it would be really helpful he’s been missing for nearly 2 months without a single sign of him
 
Portion control 🙂 At this point getting the dog eating and getting its gut moving , then cut the meals back to twice a day.
Rosie How is your pup today?
