lolobear · 10-22-2007, 07:17 AM

Lolo is 4 months old and about 1.6 lbs. She has been in for a check-up with her vet in the past 3 weeks and was healthy and happy. I have noticed in the last week or so that is eating a considerable amount more food. I usually feed her about 3 times a day and she nibbles when she wants in between. However, she is now inhaling her food so fast that every time I put food down she eats it. She is now eating about 6 times a day. Is this normal for a growing puppy or is this a sign of a health problem? If anyone has any info I would greatly appreicate it. Thanks!!!
