| Sweetie, did your vet offer any extra calorie foods? I think Science Diet offers some. Or maybe some supplements like Solid Gold that you can sprinkle onto his food. What are you feeding currently? I feed Barley Evo and was giving Bijou (puppy) the Innova puppy food, but I give her the Evo now too. Is it that he's not wanting to eat? If so, maybe mixing some canned food into it so he'll eat more. Please, post some pictures when you can. We'd love to see him.

YT Addict | I ask my vet the same question every time I go in "Is she too skinny?! She feeeeels sooooo skiny!" We weighed in at a full 3 pounds Monday at over 7 months old. :P She keeps asuring me that her weight is very healthy. BUT, If i want to help her add a little winter weight her advice was to add eggs to my yorkie's food. I am very lucky to have a "natural" dog food store close by. They have offered me lots of information on my yorkie's food. I decided to wait on the egg becuase I recently changed food. When I get home, I will comeback with the name of the food I use now. Im on love with this food and I think she is too :P as she has started to fill out a little bit since.
