What can I give my dog to make her want to eat? {see below}?

I give her tons of love and she is inside with us. She just doesn't like to eat.
Answers:
You need the "Nothing In Life is Free" method. As someone mentioned, make her earn her food. Do not leave food down for her all the time. Go through some basic obedience with her and give her a little time to settle down. Feed her 1/2 her regular daily meal. Leave her food down for no more than 20 minutes, then take the bowl up. Get her on a schedule. If food is not constantly available, she will eat when it's offered. A dog will not starve themself if food is offered (but keep it 2 smaller meals a day apposed to a bowlful all day).
my dog did the same you can give you dog food like cheese fruit vegetables and chicken it might work
my dog is the same way. have you tryed mixing wet food like pedigree with the dry food they like it so much better and when they exercise more there more hungry.
she dont eat cuz u love on her too much. make her earn her food. she should eat what you want her to eat. just put her food down at specific times, once in morning and once in evening, and let it sit for about a half hour. if she dont eat. take it up. she'll eventually get the hint and start to eat.
OK I'm sorry to say don't give your doge human food that will spoil her and she will beg for food the rest of her life. If you just got her it could be a nervous issue, leave her in her "safe place" it could be a crate or a room even under a bed or couch leave food near her and walk away she doesn't like to be watched. The other thing is she could have a stomach bug just wait a few days and if she doesn't eat take her to the vet.
Give her some exercise!
