There is no such thing as miniature Yorkie . I find this post very strange . Loosing weight like that and doing nothing , it is very weird . |

All right...I was going to leave this one alone. Didn't want to stir anything up. Glad to see this is ??????? fr others too. |
Again,, I say,,, If 5 pounds is FAT and 2-3 pounds the ribs are showing,,, how can 5 pounds be overweight? Are you trying to make her a Wee little Miniature Yorkie.. when it sounds like she should weigh the standard normal weight of 5-7 pounds? |

Wow... whats up with this? I post a concern for my puppy and people start attacking me. "Shame on her" ...whats up with that? The dear girl was overweight trust me (and i know you said if its not the case you appoligise, its accepted). And i can guarentee you the place i'm from is not big, there is a total of 1200 people and only 2 stores where dog food is available, and its all junk that the bigger towns didnt have room for. Sorry for my vent, i appologise, but some of you are making it seem like I'm a horrible furmomma, and i guarentee you thats not the case. |
Talk it over with your mom and see if you can order some good quality dog food on line. It may cost you a little more, but it will last you a long time and you'll end up saving in the end on vet bills. best of luck |

Going from 5 to a tiny 2 lbs is dangerous and she really needs to have her weight get back where it should be....Also - there really aren't "Minature' yorkies - you sound like you have a normal sized baby and she just needs proper food and hopefully you won't lose her to starvation or illness. I wish you luck - there are all sorts of places to get HIGH quality dog food but I would stay away from the low cost foods you see on TV....they're full of bad stuff |
thank you red98vett, i really appriciated that post. I really did think there were miniture and standard yorkies though. I will most certainly talk it over with my mom to get her food online. |

Many stores even carry the Eukanuba or Iams (Even though we should boycot Iams) it IS good food - Supermarkets and Grocery stores carry these now - and always - Petco and Petsmart People (me included) tend to get a little up in arms when we try to help sometimes - We want ALL yorkies to have the best care and tend to be very passionate - Good luck :thumbup: |
has she been to a vet? are you feeding her a little bit of canned food too? Reguardless of what you feed her, she needs to go to a vet. The drastic weight loss could be from something else. I hope she's healthy, but those are red flags. If she grew up to 5 lbs, then that is her ideal weight imo. If the breeder told you she was a "mini" then she was probably wrong. I would want her back up to that weight asap. Good luck! |

Thank you Villette for bringing this back to a civil level...or at least some resemelance? resemblance? thereof. Sounds scetchy, but I will try to give you the benefit of the doubt. I don't see how I would accomplish anything else! |
