I was recently given a very small Yorkie puppy as a present. My girlfriend, who bought it for my birthday, said that the seller referred to the puppy as a "teacup". After doing our research, we realized the dangers of such a small puppy. But Duece is now a part of our family, and we do everything possible to give him the healthiest and happiest lifestyle we can.

Duece is 12 weeks old and weighs about 1 pound.

He has all his front teeth on the top and bottom, but no back teeth. Therefore he can't eat any hard food, and has a hard time with the chewy, softer foods. We don't know what to feed him! He licks EVERYTHING so I know he's hungry, but he doesn't eat hard or soft food. He gets his daily serving of NutriCal. Any suggestions???

Please help!
