Welcome to Yorkie Talk. The joy of getting a new pup always comes with the worries of caring for a little one. What you are experiencing is normal, and I'm glad you are keeping an eye on it. Getting them to eat a little every few hours at this stage is important.
You have received lots of good advice, so I'll just add a couple things that worked when mine were babies. Save the broth when you boil chicken and use that to moisten small kibble, and put finely diced chicken on top. I used to add about a teaspoon of cottage cheese to it until my Tiki got to eating better. I continued to put about a tablespoon of home-cooked chicken and rice on top of kibble as an enticement for all my pups for the first year.
Many breeders on here recommend Royal Canin puppy food for the first year, you might want to look into it. Good luck, and hope to hear more about your little guy. |
