Also, you may find over the next few weeks that his appitite slows down just a little. As pups grow, their energy requirements decrease and so does their calorie needs. It's not unusual for an adult to eat less than when they were a pup. For example, a 10-pound, 10-WEEK-old puppy might need 2.25 cups of food. Compare to a 10-pound, 10-MONTH-old young adult who needs only 1 cup of the same food. It is, of course, harder to see such a dramatic difference when you're feeding such a little guy!

Thank you, that helps make me feel better about how much he's eating. I am pretty sure now he is just chubby like a baby would be ... nothing to worry about, it will most likely go away when he's an adult. Thanks again!
