I can only speak for myself, but the posts I've read come across to me that the OP is overly obsessed with the weight of the puppy. I view this many posts about a tiny puppy's weight as very unhealthy. Posts on forums and other written communications, like emails, can come across the wrong way, so it is possible they are not interpreted in the manner the OP intended. However, the way they read to me makes me think the motivations are either some type of fat phobia, a concern for the OP's physical limitations over the best interest of the puppy or maybe some other motivation that the overall vibes of the posts again make me think this is not in the puppy's best interest. I think others must read them the same, or they would not be expressing such concern. I think the members of this forum showing concern are very aware of or have personally experienced the tragic consequences associated with toy breeds and lack of adequate nourishment when they don't eat enough, so the thought that one would intentionally limit food intake to control size seems unconscionable. And the OP's posts give me the vibes that she would do so. So I have to defend the responders posts, because if they read the OP's posts the same as me, I understand their concern.
