She is about 6 months old and eats like a little piggy. What is the best food for her? How much food do I give her?
She does have a inflamed tear duct since birth. Has anyone ever heard of this?
Do I use a collar on her? Or should I get a harness to bring her out in for walks?
What about the cold? Do you think I need to get her a pair of pj's for night time?
Thanks for your help,

My sister has a chihuahua, who i take care of most of the time... anyway Lily is a piggy as well. She will be a year in sept. & about 3 lbs. I feed both Innova small bites and Lily gets half of 1/4 cup twice a day plus some apple sauce and treats. I would walk her on a harness, one that stays away from the neck. Get her some hoodies and pjs they come in handy and a sleep sac.
I've never heard about inflamed tear duct... As for yorkies and chihuahua getting along... Mine are best friends, but occasionally fight. Nothing serious maybe over a toy or blanket. Good luck with your new chi!
