Try green beans and sliced, peeled apple for treats. In the heat of Fl I also give mine chipped ice in their water bowls, they go for it and it fills them up. I switched from Science Diet to Royal Canin and Innova after mine became adult dogs, not sure if that matters, SD is a good food but it might have more fat, etc. Also, if your baby has a lot of hair, that can weigh a lot, like a cottony coat. I still feed mine twice a day, although I am sure I could switch to once a day. You know how they are, act like they are starving all the time, so I give them a small amount in the am and pm. Sounds like you aren't overfeeding though. Lastly, at the vet checkup I asked mine about weight, I thought Chloe was a little heavy but the vet thought it was perfect for her bone structure. Lots of people on this site have larger yorkies than mine. They might have more imput about weight, there are just a lot of considerations. |
