First of all, preference of dog food for her. I know she should be eating small bites. Her owner said she fed her Science Diet, but I am not a fan at all of Science Diet. Had two cats that had to be laid to rest a year ago( they lived to be 17 & 18yrs old) and I never ever fed them that brand.
Second. I am looking at bows for her hair but I'm not sure which is better for her. Alligator clips, french barrette or the elastic bands.
Thank you for your experienced help. |
Hi and welcome to YT!! It's so great that you adopted this 4 year old girl. Can't wait to see pics
You will get a lot of different answers on food. I would not suddenly switch her food no matter what. Gradually transition to what you want. Many prefer grain free because these Yorkies tend to have tendencies toward allergies. Mandie's eyes watered a lot when I first got her. I think it was caused by various things but 2 things I changed were her food and her water. I have always had her on Blue Buffalo (first puppy and now small breed and toy breed...I get either of those really). Some here like Royal Canin and some like Canine Caviar and there are more. Many here actually do home cooking and/or raw diets. I'm not that ambitious or talented lol
For bows, I use the alligator clips - it's easier for my hands to get them in and they stay put.
