Hi,
I don't think you're neurotic - just a concerned Yorkie lover, like the rest of us. I've only had my furbaby, Lucy, a few weeks and she already has a big place in my heart.

I worried about how little Lucy appears to eat, but she was 1lb 10 oz when we got her at 8 weeks, and is now 2lb 7oz - so she must be doing quite well to be growing. Her coat is great, she toilets regularly and she's got so much energy it's incredible. I, too got the explanation from my vet that she has a tiny tummy, and around a quarter of a cup of food a day was ample. - and I felt much better for hearing this (even though I'd read it many times).

Maybe I need to relax a bit - she's so gorgeous and so happy we must be doing something right! So hang in there - your little darling may be a fussy eater, but she will not starve herself, you can bet!
