| What brand of food are you feeding your baby? My baby is almost 7 months old now. She was on Eukanuba small bite at her breeder's. I was worry that the fat and protein contents might be a little high in Eukanuba so we put her on Science Diet Small bite. My breeder said if she doesn’t have any dry skin problem, which she doesn’t, then it is fine to go with Science Diet. She has been on Science Diet for a bit less than 4 months now. I just want to make it easier on her liver. Maybe I worry too much. Any thoughts? |

| Royal Canin I'm feeding my Baby Royal Canin for puppies (not the "Yorkie" type yet). Once a day I give her Iams/Eukanuba wet puppy food. She's really not crazy about wet food. I just leave dry food and fresh water out at all times. She eats when she wants. She never eats a lot at one sitting. Is this okay that I always have dry food out? My vet told me that Yorkies don't really get obese b/c they are always running around so much in the house. Is this true? Baby is 15 weeks old and about 5 lbs. He said she wasn't fat. The vet said she will probably be 7-8 lbs. Is 5 lbs okay for 15 weeks? Thanks in advance!

| Irene... thats what I was thinking of feeding Pixie. But i was trying to choose between teh two... should I do both? Could I do Ckin Soup for her kibble and the Natural Balance as her training treat? I am not a big fan of dog treats, as most are so junky. I thought the Natural Balance roll, if cut up into small peices, would make a good treat! Is it firm enough?? How do you feed the combo??

Ck Soup makes a good canned food. My moms-to-be get that in addition to the dry. By the way, Pixie's adorable! | |
