My family has been on a car trip for six days with my eight-year-old
female Lab. During the last few days, she's lost her appetite -
she'll eat biscuits in the morning and little pieces of food if you
hand-feed them to her but is disinterested in other food.

She doesn't vomit or exhibit any other abnormal behaviors. Her teeth
seem fine. She goes to the bathroom both ways normally. She wags her
tail when presented with food, but she just won't partake. She's been
on extended car trips before with no problems. Needless to say, in a
strange town with our dog acting abnormally, we're quite worried. I've
looked online, but I can't find any conditions with loss of appetite
alone as a symptom. Can anyone lend me any advice?

(Barring that, could anyone recommend me a good vet in or near Capser,
Wyoming?)

Could be she is just feeling queezy from the car ride; do you take her out
of the car every 2 - 3 hours to walk her and water her? She has to get
exercise.
