n just before he sleep, i give him a tiny portion of puppy formula...
oh i also let him chew some chicken flavored snack-toys dat looks like bones..
is dat too much??
just this morning he wont touch his food...
why??
this is my first time having a yorkie...n im sooo worried..is this normal??
before i brought him home the breeder told me not to give him humans food or he wont touch his meal anymore, n i didnt..so why wont he eat his food?
what can i do to make him eat??

thanx in advance for the help...
dont give any human food or any dog snacks; if u are giving dry food; try to add a little warm water for the kibble to soften up. or u can try some dog wet food. dog usually like the flavor of purina pro plan lamb and rice. try that.
you can make the kibbles mushy with warm water and then hand feed; if the puppy refuses to eat at all. u can put the food in his mouth to get him to start eating. if worst comes to worst u can add a little fat free cottage cheese and mix with the food.
to avoid hypoglycemia give a little bit of honey. make sure he drinks water to avoid dehydration.
good luck
