| I dunno...I have never scrambled eggs for my 2. But I brought my 2nd puppy home when she was 7 weeks, and I fed her canned food and I also crushed up hard food and mixed it with yogurt and at other times mixed it with cottage cheese. I know sure sure these things are ok for our little little babies. Maybe you could try that before you did the eggs. Seems like I read somewhere on here that eggs were not particularly good for them, but I could be wrong. |

| When I first brought Kona home she was a little picky, but once she got used to her new surroundings she was okay. I would try to give a little Nutrical and maybe mix the dry food with some wet. What was the breeder feeding her? |

Peeka Boo I See You! Donating Member | yes give her nutrical it will also help get her appitight going and try some diff things like yogert or even those baby food turkey sticks they look like vienna sausages. i wouldn't do the eggs my vet said it wasn't great for them this little to much protein they need more stuff with carbs and sugar to keep them going. also put some karo syrup in the water that will help with blood sugar.

| I brought both Rex and Rowdy home at 7 weeks - you will have several people telling you that you brought her home too young. But where I live, if you want a Yorkie baby, you will have to take them that young because most breeders won't keep them any longer. Anyway, just wanted to warn you about the people who may yap at you because you brought her home too early. At any rate, what I did was to put some warm water in the dry food the breeder had been feeding - actually that is what the breeder had been doing too - so you have a sort of mush. Rowdy DID NOT like it, so I fed him anything that he would eat - cottage cheese, scrambled eggs (you can scramble them in a dish with a bit of water, if you want - then cook them with spay Pam or just a tiny bit of oil). I also put some kayro syrup on Rowdy's food to get him to eat - it helps with hypoglycemia and he would eat the mush food better. Even when he got a little older, I would put drizzle just a bit of kayro on his dry food to entice him to eat it. I could also get him to eat the baby (human) Gerber chicken sticks (looks like vienna sausages). I gave him tiny bits of boiled chicken too. I didn't have this problem with Rexy - he ate/eats EVERYTHING! Good luck, it is a struggle with some of them.

| well I got both of mine early too. one at 6 weeks and one at 8 weeks. But its same way here. If you see one advertised and you want it you better head out to get it be it 6,7,8 weeks or it will be gone. People here say they do better if they leave their moms before the get the pack instinct. True or not, who really knows? But I've had no problems with either of mine. Kizzy ate good, slept good and all soon as I brought her home. Kacee wouldnt eat the first 24 hours but when she did eat, she ate 3 of her little bowls of food and kept going to kizzys bowl and grabbing a peice of hers. It was just too cute, like she was sneaking Kizzys. She would grab one peice and run just maybe 1 foot to the rug and she would have it eaten by time she got there and would run back and grab another and take off back over and over several times. Then today Kizzy ignored her food and ate all of Kacees. I had a pekingnese 6 weeks and hubby worked nights. when he came home in the mornings he would tell me, scramble Lucky and egg too, I would and he would sit by hubbys feet while hubby at and eat his eggs. But my yorkies dont get anything but their food and cheerios for treats. once you start table feeding them it gets harder and harder to get them to eat dog food. Or it did Lucky, he wouldnt eat it at all so I had to feed him some our our food. I learned with him. So personally, I dont think a soft scrambled egg is gonna hurt one, might even be good for it.
