IF he is eating well, gaining weight and otherwise healthy, there is really no reason to keep giving him the Nutrical. I do not give it automatically to all pups. I would try him without, just watch for any signs of hypoglycemia. I would also not use the dark Karo or Codliver oil -- sounds like it would be too likely to cause bowel trouble. I would go in and get some more Nutrical. You need to always have it on hand when you own a toy dog just in case they get sick or otherwise hypoglycemic.

I bought a postal scale from ebay, very inexpensive and it has been great to weight the pups. I doubt your vet will charge just for a weigh in. I know mine does not.
