| Hi, and a big welcome to you and Riley. Sorry to see that he was ill when you got him but glad he's feeling better. If he's eating well, he shouldn't need much Nutri-cal but a dab on your finger between meals wouldn't hurt, especially since he's been ill. It's good for a boost but shouldn't be given regularly to a healthy dog as it can cause a sugar spike in their blood. |

| Oh, he looks like the SWEETEST little guy. I'm so glad he's feeling better. I have my little one Nutrical, also, when he was small because he was prone to hypoglycemia. You can give it to him as a daily suppliment to his diet, if he is not eating well. It gives them extra calories and sugar so their blood sugar doesn't take a dive. (My vet eventually had me put just a little Kyro syrup in his water daily for this same reason -- it dissolves well in water -- but I did not do this at the same time I was giving Nutrical). You may just want to do the Nutrical until he gets over the hump of adjusting to his new surroundings, in case you are having trouble getting him to eat. Good luck with your new sweetie!

| I love the hair on my little boy being long. I just pull it back in a rubber band. He would have a bow, if he would leave it there, but he won't. He's your baby, you fix his hair however you want to. I'm convinced that bows are 100% acceptable!
