Betti Paige has now started to sit at her bowl of food and just stare at me. So out of the bowl and onto a plate, she ate out of the plate for about a week, then sat and stared at the plate, now I put the food directly on the place mat under her bowls and she gobbles it up!!!???

Really? she has a major under bite and I thought it might be easier for her to pick it up on a flat surface? Or has she trained ME yet again?

Also how much exercise/playing should she be getting? I have read that its not good to get them too exhausted since they are so very tiny. She is a 4 lbs and not an ounce of fat on her at all.

Last night I could not get her to calm down she played from 4:30 to 9:30 when I finally made her lay down...and of course she was out like a light!

Thank you all for any and all suggestions, helpful hints, advice it is certainly welcomed!
