feeding confusion.... hey, everyone...i am confused and i am hoping you all can share your experience and knowledge since my vet cant give me a straight anwser.my little lady Maggie is 5 months old and weighs 2.4lbs(as of 2 weeks ago).we are still working on potty training and are doing pretty good with that.i am free feeding her biljack (the only food she seems to eat) and cant seem to figure out when she needs to pooh since she eats a little all day long.i am afraid if i feed her 2 or 3 times a day she will not eat enough.i know it may sound strange but Maggie is really not food or treat driven.my biggest fear is she will loose weight....ant suggestions ???? my vet suggests she puts a little weight on before her spay surgery next month... |
Most breeders recommend free feeding until they are 8 months old. When they are tiny like yours, this is extremely important. I wouldn't worry too much about the poo thing, she's still pretty young. Some dogs are more regular than others and train their masters faster. |
I think alot of vets are just not real knowledgeable when it comes to feeding the best foods. I free feed all of mine and feed them in the morning and at nite. With your baby that small I would keep a watch for hypoglocemia. Kayla is 9mo. old and I make sure she has something in her little tummy all the time. Your baby is really tiny. Just have to do alot of research on the food deal. I think its hard for everyone and I am still scared of the dog food we buy. |
Have you tried canned food? |
