| Good morning! Now I know people probably won't agree with me but have you tried home cooking for her? I don't know how old she is, but there's such brilliant information on here - that's what I'm doing for our Harry. At her tiny size, it won't even cost that much more than shop-bought. Just a thought! Sally + Harry x |

| She's small. If she's being picky one suggestion I'd have, especially is she's young, is to free feed. The problem with such young, small pups is that they can play and play and not know when to stop, causing low blood sugar. If you want to be on the safe side, and make sure her sugar isn't low is to look at her gums. They should be a healthy pink color and be moist. The free feeding when she is young will help with the low sugar issues and when she's older you can start doing structure.
