Help my boston Snubs her food

My boston was a little pig, would get all excited about her food, now she eats a couple pieces and walks away. Has been going on for 3 days now. Her stools are still normal, but don't know what to do.

My boston/shitzu goes through the same phases. We have switched her food from Iams to Pedigree to Science Diet to now Science Diet for sensitive stomach. I called my vet and he told us that as long as she is eating a little bit and drinking water and when she goes to the bathroom, and that is normal and they are still active, it is not anything to worry about. He said that some animals are just picky and get bored with their food and when they are hungry enough, they will eat. Now that she is eating the Science Diet for sensitive stomach, she seems to like it and sometimes still will not want to eat it. I have even bough some Lick o Chops from Dinovite which is like gracy that has omega and some fatty stuff in it and she seems to like it.

 Food Snub

Could she be in heat?
Could she be pregnant?
Our female snubbed her food every heat cycle until we had her spayed.
While she wasn't eating, we gave her canned food. It got so bad the vet had to give us Prescription Diet.
If she has already been spayed, then see your vet. There are many ways to encourage an appetite, but if she is sick that will not help.

Good Luck!
