Three days is too long for a puppy to go without food. It could be nothing but there are a lot of diseases and internal problems that can stop them from eating as well. I won't go into details here because there are a lot of them, most serious.
If the vet rules out those, they will be able to give you qualified advice on what to do next.
Good luck. [ isis's advice column | Ask isis A Question ]
