| Eating less I have a three year old yorkie that is 3lbs 5ozs we were feeding her three times a day, and lately she isn't interested in eating when we feed her. She will eat most of her food eventually. So I have gone to just feeding her twice a day 1/8 cup dry food at each feeding and mid day I give her a bit of sweet potatoes. Is this normal after three years to change her eating habit? She seems perfectly healthy and happy just not as hungry . Thanks for any advice |

| Has she been getting relatively less exercise lately? I've read that sometimes dogs have slightly less appetite during heat waves in the summer...

| As long as she is acting ok and doing ok. I have a 1 year old who only wants to eat once a day sometimes. Some dogs only eat twice a day or even once a day.

| We tend to walk her a fair bit and if it's to hot I have a area in the family room that I work with her and get her moving. |
