I'm so thankful for this site, I'd be so confused and even more nervous about my baby coming if it wasn't for all the helpful answers I've received It's only made me more excited!!  |
My 7+ month old is very skinny/slight - I started giving her the high calorie supplement (4,000 calories) She eats fine, active, engaged so I think it's just her body type but decided I'd try the hi cal supplement to see if it makes a difference as I can feel her hip bones, which worries me. Vet says she's healthy just a "skinny" dog - like some people have different body types. (note: the other Yorkies eating the same food are actually on the somewhat chubby side).
Anyway, after two weeks of twice daily she gained 2 ounces (but that could be from anything, more hair??/the time of day??) - still feel her hip bones so will continue it for a bit more.
