| New yorkie mommy !!! sooo happy Hy everyone...This is my first post on YorkieTalk and I have to tell you that I am sooo excited My little baby girl is named ISIS and she is almost 3 months (she will be on 6th july)...So far we haven't had much problems with her, she is sooo active and playfull.. but I am a little bit concerning about her eating..Since she is my first and only baby, I am not sure how much food should she eat and how often. I have to make a schedule or I can let her food all day long??? And one more question....she sleeps a lot..is that a problem or it's normal? Thank you soooo much....kissessss and hugs for you all ISIS |

| Hi! Welcome!! As others have said, sleeping a lot for puppies is normal, as long as she has active periods of running around, playing and investigating things and doesn't always act tired she'll be fine. I choose to leave food down all the time, that way they can eat when they get hungry. All 3 snack on and off all day, but seem to eat a really good meal in the evening.
