| Eating Portion??? My boy is 7 months and weighs 3.5 to 4 lbs. I've been watching his eating habits and don't think he is a big eater. I feed 2x a day wet food mixed with dry kibble that I crush into a powder (merrick wet and wellness dry). Most times he doesn't finish his food. Eventually I would like to force switch him to the dry kibble. Can this be that he actually is not a big eater since he is a smaller sized yorkie? Also, I know they have teeny tiny stomachs so they can tend to get fuller faster. |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Little dogs like yorkies definitely don't eat too much. My Marcel and Pfeiffer are about the same age as your kiddo, and they each eat 1oz at each meal (2 meals a day)...so it's really not much. Here is a feeding calculator if you want a little guidance: Dogs feeding chart - Nature's Logic

| Thanks. The portion I give him can just about fit on the palm of my hand. So very close to 1 oz |
