So my yorkie, Bella, has had a rough 6 months. First she had an infected uterus and had to have emergency spay surgery. A few weeks later she had a bad case of pancreatitis.
We never had issues with her diet or weight before. She always ate Beneful. After the pancreatitis she was brought home on rice and chicken. We have tried putting her on the food the vet used and her regular dry food, but she just throws it up. So she was kept on the rice and chicken. Now all she wants to do is eat and she is getting FAT. I've read that 1/2 cup of food a day is good, but I swear my husband overfeeds her. Maybe 1 cup to 1 1/2 cups. Any suggestions? Am I overreacting?
