Thank you everyone for your responses.  They were very helpful.  I think I am going to go with my instincts which are to free feed at this point and I will modify this in the future if there starts to be a problem.  My conformation class instructor has border collies and may not be familiar with yorkies and their issues with hypoglycemia.  I am not comfortable restricting Mia's food as she is so young.  We shall see how her vet checks go this first year and I may change this thinking if the vet thinks she is gaining too much or too quickly.     |
