Now he gobbles up his food and can have a taste of new things without getting sick. Now he'd totally overeat if I let him.

Have you tried things like serving him from a plate instead of a bowl or throwing the food on the floor? At once point I figured out Loki wasn't picky about the food, but about the stainless steel bowl I had it in. I switched to a plate for a while and then to BIG ceramic dishes, like for a 50 pound dog. His food doesn't even cover the entire bottom of the bowl.
Last time he was weighed I believe if I remember correctly he was 4.62 lbs. Cash seems annoyed with his bowl, always has... he usually eats the food a little faster when Carlei gets in his bowl and starts playing and eating with his food... his food's now inthe kitchen gated off, but I'll try that today, I've always meant too, but with an 7 1/2 month old dog, and an 11 1/2 month old toddler... I forget things alot lol.... so I will try that today!!! BTW your dog is soooooo cute!!!!
