 Greetings
Hello Everyone,
I'm a first time puppy owner, and am in love with my new Yorkie, Roxi (3 months old)! She's got tons of energy and is a complete sweetheart. Aside from the typical house breaking issues, she's perfect. I just have a few questions and as I've read, I think I'm in the right place!
My first question is about food. She has been eating Royal Canin and she seems to like it a ton. I'm just wondering if she's allergic to something in the ingredient because she is constantly biting her feet (and I've read that this is a sure sign of allergies). I recently purchased Solid Gold Hundchen Flockin (per reccomendation of a salesperson), and I'm wondering what your opinions are about this brand. I am also wondering how I can wean her off of the Royal Canin without upsetting her tummy too much. She currently eats 1/4 cup 3 times a day. What do I do?
My next question is about baths/grooming. How often do you bathe your dogs?
Last question...I think. I'm wondering if raw hide is ok for puppies. What do you all do for "chew toys" other than the rubber/plastic toys? Please excuse my ignorance, I'm a newbie FOR REAL!
Any advice, comments, encouragement would be greatly appreciated! |
