Mandee I'm going through the same thing with Emma right now. At first as a puppy she ate EVERYTHING in sight, so we started watching it and measuring closely what she ate. She trimmed down a bit, which was great, but now she is SO skinny. I swear I feed her so much food, but her metabolism is so high she just can't keep it on. She should be closer to 7 lbs (she is very long, and taller than Milli), and she weighs just 6. So we have started feeding her a 3rd meal each day, and so far I think it's helping, after just a week of trying it! I homecook, so I have added in a meal of kibble (I got Solid Gold Wolf King, but I'm not sure if that's agreeing with their tummies, I might have to switch), and I have also been using Sojos (similar to HK) as the homecooked food base.
Anyway, try feeding her another small meal later at night-maybe 2 hours before bedtime. If you don't want to give her that much kibble, try the other 1/2 of her boiled egg, 1-2 tablespoons of oatmeal, and a little applesauce or some cheese on top. It's really easy to have those things all mixed up and in the fridge-and my two will even eat it cold! |
