When she ran out of Eukanuba earlier this week, I decided to get Royal Canin for Yorkies. Well, since then she wants to eat all the time. In the morning I give her 1/3 c. and then 1/3 c at night which is a little over the recommended amount for her weight. I gave her 1/3 c at 8:00 this morning and now she's standing at her food bowl barking because she wants more. Should I give her what she wants and assume she needs this since she wasn't eating very much before. HELP
LOL. I'm not laughing AT you or the situation. Chews is barking for HER food, too. The fromms and the boiled chicken diet. I give her anything over 1/3 she'll keep eating. if I give her the 1/3, she'll lick the plate. She will stand twice a day, once at exactly 7:45am, and the next at 6:00pm for her meals. She'll lick her lips and stare. Just stare. Then I'll feel a tap on my leg, followed by her little howl bark. She also has her snack times. It's because she adores boiled chicken so much. I mean, she REALLY likes chicken, and now that she's on a small dose of steroids she's just super hungry. I feel your pain, hehe.
I came on to ask about ginger. I had some and she was licking my fingers before I realized some trace amounts were on. she was even nibbling on my thumb nail. Remember, hehe, I know it's perplexing; just remember that it might make her mad if you don't give her more, but, that's about it. Definitely doesn't sound like she's starving.
