They have kibble down to crunch on whenever they want. So far, though they have gained a few ounces, they are doing great on this system. I fed them way too much, at first, forgetting how tiny their stomachs are  So I cut it way back and their fat bellies are less so now. I was mixing their kibble in (measured) with the soft, but they mostly left that all over the kitchen floor and didn't eat much of it that way. I dunno, I may pull up the kibble and try again, but in the meantime they are combo kids  |
Oh goodness Hypoglycemia? do you mind sharing what happened? i've read that this is common in yorkies.
