Why isn't she growing? Hi everyone! I just came back from the vet and I found out that Lilo hasn't gained any weight the last 2 weeks although she has gotten a teensy bit longer. She was .7 pounds at 8 weeks old. 1 pound at 10 weeks old. Went down to .9 at 12 weeks old. And at 15 weeks old she's still at .9 pounds although she obviously has gotten a little bigger and longer. The vet said she's still very healthy and alert and we have had any hypoglycemic problems or any problems in general for that matter. She eats 3 times a day and we've been increasing her food every week. She's not too skinny and has a good layer of fat/ muscle on her bones when I rub her back. I'm just curious as to why it seems her growth has slowed down again? When I had JoeJoe he grew a ounce or two every week steadily and physically got a little bigger each week also. Has any one had this problem before? She's on orijen puppy and Stella and chewies patties.
