Hi All-
Well, soon after Stannie moved in, I came down with a terrible bout of the flu. Still feel lousy, but can get up and about again without sleeping 1/2 a day.
Stanford seems to be doing well. I gave him a coal tar shampoo bath and conditioner treatment this morning, and he seemed to enjoy it. I found some raw spots on his neck, and put some Bactoderm on them. I also cleaned his ears with some Sulfodene, and got out a lot of dirt and some wax. He seemed a bit less itchy, and seems to have reduced the amount of time spent scratching his ears. He did very well with all this stuff.
My question is: he needs to put on weight. So I have been feeding him small portions 4 times a day. Then I cut back to three times a day, same amount. He did well with this. Then today, it is the same amount 2 times a day. I am giving him about 3/4 of a cup total/day. This evening, about 9 pm, he began barking and spinning in the kitchen (this means "feed me"). He had already had his two servings for the day, so I informed him no more until the morning, and gave him a biscuit. He gobbled it down, and then barked for the next half hour, doing his little dance in the kitchen. I ignored him, and eventually he went up on the sofa with the big dog and went to sleep.
I am under feeding? Overfeeding? He is having normal poo's, and no vomiting. I just don't want to get him in the habit of eating 4 times a day.
Some sites say leave food out all the time, others say No, some say feed once a day, etc...
HELP.
