How much to feed? Paris is gaining weight too much. How much do you feed your Yorkie? Paris gets 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon wet mixed in. Maybe thats too much>he weighs 13.7 and is supposed to be 11lbs. |
What brand of food are you feeding him and how old is he? Cody eats less than the recommended amount of his brand but he's still gaining a little weight. He's 8 months old and weighs almost 12 pounds. |
Is that 1/3 cup, once a day or twice? What brand food are you feeding, some are higher in calories per serving than others? My yorkies are different sizes so they each get different amounts. Ruby my tiny girl gets a little less than a 1/4 cup divided into 2 meals and maintains her 3.2lbs consistently. She actually is carrying an extra few ounces (3-4 oz) and probably should lose it but feeding her any less and it would be almost like eating nothing. |
Jackson gets 1/2 cup per day. 1/4 cup in the AM and 1/4 cup in the PM, and also a tad of wet food fixed in, plus a few treats throughout the day. He is 15lbs and maintains his weight perfectly. He's not overweight, so if someday he seems more hungry or wants to eat more, I will give it to him. |
The vet said Paris should lose some weight because of his CT. He always used to weigh around 11 lbs. He is 10 1/2 years old and I feed him Blue Buffalo senior and BB canned chicken formula. He also gets 2 small treats a day. Poor thing....lol |
