One good way to check is looking at the gums -- if they are pale & cold (not pink and flush) then rub a little Nutrical on them 3 times a day.
Oh ok thanks for telling me, I would have read the instructions on it anyway beforehand but I was under the impression it was an everyday thing because of their size and blood sugar. I never even heard of the product until I started reading on the forum so it is new to me. I surely don't want to cause him problems.
