Hi I've been reading everyone's comments and find it so interesting. I'm the same with Bella and also do free feeding. I've followed the breeder's advice to free feed her when I got her. Bella maintains her weight at 6 pounds for over a year now and she will be 2 years old this April. Lots of times her kibbles are leftover the next day or two sometimes. I worried she doesn't eat much. I have to lure her with her favourite toppings and/or baked chicken pieces to put in with her kibbles. She tends to eat mid-day once and then again when it's close to bedtime or whenever she's hungry but she doesn't eat a lot. I know she's clever and holding out from eating and waiting for treats in between, lol.
