1. how often should Oscar be eating (if I could leave his dry food down, I think he would eat none-stop--but Emmy would gobble it up!) I would feed him at least 3-5 times a day to make sure he doesn't get hypolycemia. Look on the dog food bag to see how much he should be getting per day and divide that between 3-5 small meals.
2. can he have small treats like I give Emmy--carrot shreds, fruit, cottage cheese, regular cheeses (cheddar, brie, havarti (Em's favorite), swiss) Yes. All those are fine treats to give your new little guy.
3. he loves wet food--how often can he have it? I have been giving him some first thing in the morning and keeping him on kibble the rest of the day. Should I give him some at night, too? It's fine to give him wet food morning and night but if he's eating his dry dog food with no problems, then I would leave out the wet food altogether. The wet food is bad for their teeth and since yorkies are already prone to having teeth problems, I would try to leave out the wet food. BUT, if he won't eat his food dry, then a little wet food on top is fine.
