I got Zoey when she was about 8 weeks and she was just slightly over 3 lbs. I also had to hand feed her for the first few weeks because she wasn't interested in eating. The breeder started her on Pedigree but I wanted her on better food so I was trying to switch it out slowly. That might have been another reason she wasn't eating properly. Till she was over 6 months, I fed her about 5 times a day and dwindled down as she got to be a year old. She's also a bit of a picky eater so it took a while to find one she likes.

I'm feeding them blue bufflo right now but I'm thinking of switching them to Canine Caviar...

Must be nerve wrecking seeing him not eat much... I think you said you're taking him to the vet this Wed. Hope everything's ok with him! And congrats on your furbie!
