I was feeding NV raw for a while too and morgan was still skinny. Some yorkies are just naturally skinny sticks. She eats like a pig and then begs for people food whenever she sees someone else eating. i don't know where she puts it honestly.
Just recently tho, i took her to the vet for something and she weighed 4lbs 15oz. this is a first. She just turned 3 years old on 4/15. She was holding steady at 4.5lbs for a year and a half so her metabolism might be changing. |
He's not really active. Which is another reason I wouldn't want to end up over-feeding him...he wouldn't be able to burn it all off. He walks (or runs) around the house, but most of the time he's a lazy little runt and prefers to sleep

I should really take him out for walks, but I'm such a worry wart

. One time when he was out for a walk, he poked his face into a stick/branch on the ground and let out a big yelp. Then there was this other time when I thought he was going to get stung by a bee

I also worry about him stepping on something in the grass that might hurt him. I know I'm being overprotective, but he's so tiny that every little thing worries me to death
