So if you are like me and you fill a bowl, let them eat, and put it up when they are done...you have to refrigirate the food bowl with the missing link in it. But on the other hand, it's so hot here that maybe she enjoys having her food refrigirated.

But, I have a question.

The vet says Sadie does not have fleas, so why does she scratch periodically?
Not alot, but she does scratch like crazy at times. Do your Yorkies do this?

Thanks.

I noticed that Maggie scratches at different times. Mostly when she has had her collar or harness on for longer than usual. I can take her harness off, and she will scratch like a woman removing her bra. I always take her harness off at night, and she will scratch until all the itch is gone. Sometimes I even help her. After a few minutes, it's lights out till morning.

Is it possible that these guys could be getting bitten by something else...spiders, mosquitoes? Your flea meds won't cure that and it is bug season almost everywhere.

I give my yorkies a bath every Saturday, I noticed they start to scratch themselves just about the 7 day mark so I give them a bath and they are all better
