You sure she isn't going into her heat? Mine stopped eating seemingly altogether for about 2/3 weeks before she went into heat. Lethargic,and shedding like there was no tomorrow were the next signs long before any blood. Mine is a tiny rott - 13 months now and only 36k - she is wonderfully lean and although she loves treats, has never been one to go for it big time at meals. Not at all what I expected for a rott. If she looks well, leaner is better, and less piggy definately an advantage. As the other reply, 3 meals is a fair bit of eating at this age and I took mine off puppy food around this time due to her having HD and not wanting the extra calories. Follow your instincts rather than any Rott Chart - one thing I have learnt is these dogs, like any dog I guess, are all individuals first, breed second. Good luck.
