But daily I am so impressed by her behavior and attitude, it makes me very happy 
Now her weight....last year she weighed at the most 5.3 (maybe even 5 lbs 5 oz) - Since her diet change, she is now 4 lbs 4 ozs  - I hope it is b/c of her new diet  - She also does Indie 500 laps around my house at least 3x a day (she has HIGH anxiety and just goes straight into big lap mode  ) So I contribute her weight loss to that as well. |
Does her vet say she is underweight?
Ellie is very skinny also.
She gets lots of food because she burns it off.
I'd say maybe 3/4-1 cup a day...
Ellie eats chicken often.
She was on egg for a long time which was fine but I don't want her to develop an allergy to it and she handles meat very well.
We just stay away from red and exotic meats.
