Should I give it to her even though she does not meet the weight requirements.
I wouldnt give her Science Diet, that food isnt that great, Vets just recomend it because they get a kick back. There are TONS of better food for her. I am not sure about the meds....I would personally wait until she gets to that weight. I gave peanut a heartgaurd pill when he was a pup and he wasnt what they wanted for weight and he threw up...I am not sure why but i just waited after that. How old is she?
