I have chloe for over 4 months now, she will be 7 months in about a week or so. My question is, is it normal for yorkies to eat very little? She has free reign of her food, her breeder fed her royal canines, she just seems disinterested in food. I even hand feed her to make sure she eats and she does eat but very little.
Treats are different however, she can eat all day long if i let her.

I have tried, royal canines, science diet and Orijen. Orijen is the one she seems interested most but even that is just few pieces of kebble. Now i have bags of dog food. I don't drastically change her diet either.

She seems healthy, thats why i am not super worried but it does tug in the back of my mind. I am just wondering if its normal. She weighs 4 - 4.5 lbs.

She is my first dog and alot of the times i can be such a worrywart when it comes to her. I can't help it.
