If by chance you have a food scale take the amount gained in hamburger meat and put it on the scale and then look at that as compared to your puppy you will see that it is a decent amount of weight for the amount of time.
that is a great visual! yea, i guess im just concerned because i heard that smaller puppies are more prone to LP and LS. I also have a bigger yorkie and when they play i get so worried if my bigger yorkie topples over him. im so overprotective over this one because he's small.
