Default Hi. I'm new here!

Hi all,

I just found this forum and it's awesome! My baby is a Yorkipoo, I hope that's okay on the Yorkie forum as I've really enjoyed reading this forum so much already. We've had Opi 2 months now. She is almost 6 months old and weighs just under 3 pounds. I just love her so much!! She is my little girl. It's a good things my kids adults...keeps them from getting jealous! lol
I came on here is search of ideas for making her food. She's either really picky or may possible be having acid troubles in her tummy. Not only has she been vomiting, she is the pickiest & refuses to eat. I have never been through anything like this with our big girl Riley, I thought all dogs ate everything and anything don't they? lol Anyway, after trying a few different premium foods, wet and dry. sitting with her to eat, feeding her kibble by kibble, mushing liverwurst in her food, dripping liquid from canned tuna....everything short of standing on my head try to get her to eat, our vet had us start her on a chicken and vegetable diet this past weekend. The vomiting has stopped so far and she's eating every last bit!!! but, we are only into the 3rd day. I just want to make sure we do it right, make it healthy and enjoyable. He mentioned she will need supplements. Since we've had her we've been giving her Nutri-cal for her sugar levels I guess as he warned us that low blood sugar can be a problem.
Well, I've written a novel....I'll stop for now and keep reading. I'm sure I'll have lots of questions on so many aspects of my little girl.
