Alright -

With my other three pups ( not Yorkies - a chihuahua, poodle mix, and Mexican Hairless ) we free feed them. I never measure their food. I always figured they would eat what they wanted. Their weight has always been fine.

So, I am thinking I should also free-feed little Marley. He is so young (around 5 weeks) that I'm worried he won't get enough if I pull his dish. What are the reasons NOT to free-feed?

I'm doing the Blue Buffalo puppy food (Lamb and Brown Rice) with him and so far he is eating it.
