| Nurti-cal and Sammi go hand and hand...She wakes up in the morning and she knows she is getting her "VITES" (that is what she knows them by) She will sit in the kitchen by the cabinet and look up until someone satisfies her nutri-cal craving We used to get them at our vet but they charged more there... Walmart sells it also This is the cheapest I have found it...So since there are 3 dogs in the house who use it we usually get about 6-8 tubes at a time http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=3635292

| yep-Pippa thinks it's "totally tubular" to lick it out of the tube! I know that was bad-probably the only people that will "get" that is we children of the 80's!

| Nutrical (when should they have it?) Alley is a very picky eater and will not touch dog food. I cook him boneless skinless trimmed chicken breast and I give him carrots and apple. He had asparagus last night for the first time and loved it. I really watch what types of food I give him. My question is, how do I know if he is getting all of the nutrition that he needs? I've heard about Nutrical, but I'm also worried about too many calories. He's by no means under weight (or too heavy either). He is a very playful little boy and not sickly (thank goodness), but I really want to be sure he's not missing out on any important vitamins.

| Also - do we give Nutrical to our pups forever, or is there a certain age when we should stop giving it to them? |

| I have a ? What do you give nutri cal for? My mentor told me it's only necessary if Bailey doesn't eat, he's always been a good eater & I've never given it to him. So why do you guys give your yorkies nutri-cal? |

Donating YT 14K Club Member | The first time I gave it to Rebel, I had to force his mouth open. But after a couple of days, I just put it on my finger tip and he licks it off. OF COURSE, if Rebel gets some, so do Gracie and Chester. THEY LOVE IT!
