Well so far so good since I last posted. I kind of went back to square one and made sure he was contained in the kitchen whenever we could not watch him every second. As the days go buy and if he continues to have no accidents I will start giving him a little more freedom.
On a side note also started taking his food away during the day to move away from free feeding at the vet and trainers recommendations. Says it will help with potty training and with him waking up so early (5am). So I have his food down between 6:30-7:30, 3:30-4:30, and 7:30-8:30. Water also comes up at 8:30, and he is usually fast asleep by 10. I have only been doing this since Monday. However yesterday and today he did not eat or poop in the morning. He only pooped and ate yesterday when I got home from work. Only ate about a 1/4 of cup too, and a few pieces before he went to bed. He is 4.5 pounds.
Is this normal when you try and put them on a feeding schedule? I feel like he should be eating more than that, and def more than once a day! I never really had issues with him free-feeding. He would just eat when he was hungry, he never went overboard. Should I just go back to it or is it a good idea to start regulating him? |
