Hi everyone, i am sure my breeder will give me tips when i pick my boy up, but i was just wondering what the normal amount and feeding schedule is for a 8-12 week old yorkie baby. I'm so scared of hypoglycemia!! I have read anywhere between 3 and 5 small meals a day is good.

Also, I heard that stopping food/water by 6 or 7 at night can help with potty training at night? but if he eats at 7pm and then not til say, 7am...is that too long for a yorkie baby to go without eating?

Thanks so much! I just want to do everything I can to keep him healthy and ward off any hypoglycemia scares!!
