Riely is such a tiny girl. The vet told us at last week's check up that she's a little thin, and I have to agree. I'm watching her get taller but she's not filling it out. She's only weighing 1.5 lbs at 16 weeks. And I noticed tonight for the first time that I can distinctly feel her backbone.
Her ribs aren't as easily felt, but the backbone scares me.
She is scheduled to see the vet again on Monday for her shots and for some skin tests to figure out what's causing the hair loss on the top of her head.
In the meantime, what can I do to help her put on some weight? I feed Nutro Natural puppy food and offer it to her 4x a day. She doesn't always eat that many times, but I offer it.
She's playful as can be and without a hypoglycemic episode for a coupel of weeks now. We are still supplementing morning and night with a bit of Nutri-Stat.
Any suggestions would be oh so appreciated.
