Hi Mabels mom,
I don’t understand, does she eat at all?? or just eats 1 meal a day?

Dogs are very smart & know when to stop eating if unwell etc
In Australia we are told to fast our dogs 1 day a week, Sunday is fast day..
Fasting creates and maintains a strong immune system is an important part of good health. Toxins like vaccines, wormers, drugs and processed foods all present a challenge to the immune system, making our dogs more susceptible to disease and parasites.
The dog’s digestive system does much more than simply digest food. Approximately 80% of your dog’s immunity is found in his gut.
The dog’s intestinal tract has the ability to identify and destroy alien substances such as bacteria, viruses, parasites and chemical toxins.
It also has a built-in memory to recall the specific type of invader next time it presents a threat.
