I just posted this on another thread...but I'll post it here for you! When Baby wouldn't eat when I got her (almost 3 months old) the vet gave me Hills Science Prescription diet b/c it's high calorie. Now, I know it's not the "best" food for your Yorkie, but you have to get her to eat, right? And I think it's better than Ceasars. I used to have to feed her by hand...wet, dry, Nutrical, AND water for a few weeks. Now she's 5 months old TODAY, and she eats all by herself! Yippee (I've since switched to Chicken Soup and Royal Canin) Just keep hand feeding her. My mom was telling me, "don't feed her by hand cuz then she'll never eat out of her bowl." That's not true (in my experience) b/c she needed to eat to avoid a hypoglycemic episode. Oh, and you can give your Baby Nutrical 3-4 times a day if you want. It's just glucose (sugar). The vet told me it wouldn't harm her. I'd rather be safe than sorry. Now, don't give her the whole tube, though! LOL Good luck!!
