I agree with Mimimomo, get tested for Kidney Disease. I have two 3 lb. yorkies , one went to skin and bones, lots of drinking water/ peeing a lot. Test results showed 2nd stage kidney disease as of 3 months ago. I now have them on pressure cooked Chicken Thighs ground up with mashed sweet potato added, some mashed green beans mixed with broth from the chicken dark meat. They love it ! To that I add Kidney Support Gold drops (2) at each of their 2 meals. They gobble it up in hopes they gain some weight and feel better. The older one is in early stage of Kidney Disease. They are 13 and 15 yrs old. They get tested every 3 months now and seem to be doing ok. The chicken thighs are low in phosperous, as are the sweet potatoes, green beans. Limit treats and get your little one eating more protein. Good luck with your furbaby and please post vet visit results.
