I know some people on here say it is but mine eat it everyday and it has not been fattening to them. The vet would have a high calorie food Prescription PD. You can also try feeding him Gerber babyfood meat sticks. Also give him Nutical three times a day to revent low blood sugar. My vet told me once they get to 2 lbs they are not so fragile. Good luck they are so sweet when they are little like that. I was looking at pictures of mine when they were young like that yesterday and I am ready for another puppie just looking at them
My girls were the same weight but no hypo episodes - you sound like you're doing everything right & got some great advise - so ALL THE BEST TO YOU !!

and Chachi - I hear you on looking at the baby pictures - i get so sentimental doing that too and next is the huge puppy mojo. Even seeing the new babies here makes me nuts some days I want another SO bad
