Unhappy My dog won't eat anything! Help!

Today we took our 9 year old Rottweiller, Tiva, to the vet. The vet prescribed some antibiotics and told us we need to monitor her closely for the next 3 days and if she does not improve she will need to come back for emergency blood tests and probably surgery for some kind of a uterus infection.

Here's the problem. She hasn't eatin anything beyond a handful of food in the past 3 days. The vet said I need to get her eating something because she needs food for strength and to help the antibiotics.

She has never been a picky eater and will generally happily devour anything offered to her but because she's sick she just won't touch food. We've tried everything from wet dog food to chicken nuggets to sliced ham and she just turns away from it.

Does anyone have any suggestions for something irresistible to dogs I could try to feed her? She just really needs to eat. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
