My DD adopted a 9 year old yorkie(13 lbs) last February. She was free fed purina lamb and rice. She was a lumpy overweight smelly mess. We took a few months to cut her food(grain free, fish protein kibble) back to 1/4cup morning and 1/4 c evening. 1/2 cup total per day- no treats! She looks great now weighs 10.5 lbs- I don't think her original owners would recognize her. She is shiny, trim and hardly coughs and is able to walk a mile! |
