[QUOTE=Ginny Merry;970767]My Dixie is a week shy of 4 months old and she weights 6 lbs. Now how much more will she grow. I was told she will be around 9 lbs. Around what age will she stop growing. I think she is the big Yorkie. She is the size I would like to be now.
She scratches herself like she has fleas and I know she don't. I find pieces of her fur around the kitchen, I know she scratches herself more than she should.
She has been on Benadryl for a few weeks and is not any better. Does anybody have any idea what it could be. I take her back to the vet in 3 weeks.
I gave her a small raw baby carrot today and she loves it, is it O.K. to continue giving her 1 a day? Or is it better to cook it. Outside of that she only gets puppy chow and very little treats.

Buddy was 6 1/2 lbs at 4 1/2 mos.
Today he is 13lbs 5oz. So only time will tell.
Perhaps it's her food. What is she eating? Anything with wheat or
corn in it can cause itching. There are many threads regarding
diet and the better foods to feed our Yorkies. Check into it
and hopefully that will be the cause. Canidae is rated very high
as well as Natural Balance. No wheat or corn. Only good things.
