I only fed Millie 2 x a day and she was under 3 lbs at 5 months old. She did well with that. 3 lbs seems small and fragile, but Millie may have been small, but never sickly or fragile. She was pretty hearty. So I never worried about her. At 5 months old they can go from 3 feedings to 2. (If healthy and no history of glycemic episodes).
Also, If you can't limit the space that your dog has access too, and cannot watch her every second, I would invest in an x-pen or tether her to you so that she is by your side at all times. |
