I just got a Japanese spitz puppy today ( so cute ) she won't eat her food her breeder was feeding her iams so I bought the same thing and shes not eating her food and is sleeping all day!! She was eating the food at the breeders house though is she sick?
 
Try wetting the food to soften it up, baby teeth may still be coming in causing pain to chew hard puppy food, she should come around maybe she's not hungry yet?
If not you should switch her off that food. It's Low-Quality, filled with By-Products (Diseased left over animal carcass waste) & contains gluten & soy which dogs don't need, and Isn't healthy.
Try to switch (SLOWLY part by part) to a better food like:

Blue Buffalo Small Breed Puppy (Which is what I switched my Shih Tzu puppy onto from his last food)
You can also try:
Orijen
Wellness
Nature's Variety
& California Naturals

You can find some of these brands at Petsmart & Petco or your local Feed & Seed can be called, and asked to order it and you can pick up & pay there (:

Feeding healthier is the best way to go, so your dog can grow up to be healthy, active & happy.
 
She is probably just nervous and will likely eat tomorrow. Of course with any new puppy you should take it to the vet within a few days of getting it to make sure it is healthy and get possible shots if the breeder hasn't given them all. Puppies normally sleep a lot so I would not be too worried about her yet but if she doesn't eat by tomorrow night I would start getting worried that she might be sick.
 
A big change like moving to your house, stresses a dog. Let her sleep all she wants. She will probably eat to-morrow. Have water out. NO people food or she won't eat her own food again.
