| she eat lesser and lesser i've just got my new yorkie a week ago her name is angel, she is 5 months plus now the breeder told me that, they feed her 3 spoons per day they feeding her once per day after i brought her home, i change the feeding method to twice a day ( 1 and half spoon per time) but angel seems cant finish the food.. now even worse.. she cant even finish 2 spoon per day im wondering if is because previously the time btw for her to eat is too long that makes her too hungry and jst finish the food which they feed? or there is something wrong with her? everytime i feed her, there will be about 15 kibbles left i don't think she is too full cause if i hand feed her, she will eat it playfully =.= thanks for any feed back

| Spoon? What spoon are you using to feed her? If she's still eating, just less, I wouldn't worry much. How much does she weigh? Maybe 3 "spoons" is a bit much for her small tummy? What are you feeding her? What is the instruction on the bag? Maybe she doesn't like the taste of the kibble? All this is possible. Btw, I lived in malaysia for 9 years I just got home last September.

| Feed her appoximately the amount your kibble bag suggests. As long as she eats and seems healthy she is fine. Due to her age she could be teething so it might hurt to eat so she is eating less. Since you are feeding her spoonfuls my guess is she is a very tiny yorkie?

| She's 5 months old and eating dry food? She is teething and the hard food may be too much for her sensitive mouth and teeth right now. You might try softening it up with a little warm water before feeding her to see if that helps. |
