| It really depends on how much he weighs. If he's very small, I would wonder if he's eating much of the dry food.

| I have this same problem, I finally found this Chicken Soup stuff in a store around here and Chloe will eat a few pieces of it here and there but not very much and I also give her the ceasers in the morning and at night but she doesnt eat the whole dish of the ceasers I am always worried about if she is eating enough but I also forget that she is only 2 pounds maybe she dont need that much to fill her belly. Her tummy always feels full and then with all of the treats that she gets during the day I am sure she is getting enough but I always worry just like you do.

| Well, I'll tell ya, Toni that I'm still wondering if your little Dollar is eating any dry food. Mine weighs 8 lbs and she is only given half a container of Cesars in the morning. She is expected to eat a platter of dry which is left down the rest of the day. Plus she gets some treats and that is plenty for her. My other yorkie weighed a little more, so I'm used to feeding this size of a yorkie.

| If I were you, I'd just give him about a third of a container of the Cesars in the morning and then see if he eats the dry. Do you also give a multi-vitamin? That is good for them, too. Mine wouldn't eat any dry if I gave more of the Cesars.

Ceasars is a wet food that you can find anywere...walmart, kroger, HEB. It is come in a little plastic container with flavors like porter house, chicken and veal etc. I dont think that is bad to have her on that, but Dollar wont eat that really.
