I agree with this. The cat will let itself starve to death but not a dog. However, for a lot of our yorkies, they can become hypoglycemic if they wait to long to eat so it's important to make sure they get something in them...even if its just a couple treats. I've found that sometimes giving a small treat or two will stimulate their appetite and make them want to eat more. I'm glad Lacy isn't picky..she gobbles her raw food down. Now treats she can be picky about though
