| Do you use vitamins and/or supplements? I was looking at a Doctors Foster & Smith catalog and they have several vitamins and supplements. They have a Lifestage Select for small breeds I like that it has the Omega 3 Fatty Acids and natural fish oils as well as antioxidants and calcium. Is it overkill if you are feeding them a premium dog food? Cali is a very picky eater so I would like to know that she is getting all that she needs. I myself am a vitamin junkie but do not want to put any unnecessary strain on her system as she is so small (will be 3 to 3.5 lb full grown). She is 5 months now. If you do recommend vitamins, which do you use and how early can you start them. Thanks for the advice. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | My Cali is only eating chicken and hamburger and a tiny bit of cesars wt food so i use Missing Link supplement. It seems to be helping her coat and I feel better since she is not eating a balanced diet.

| O~ I'd love to know the answer too. (I'm going to pick my furbaby up next Thursday, so I wanna be prepared ) So are Missing Link & Supplement 5 more for their coat? Then is there any other supplement you feed your yorkies? For example, anything good for their joints, overall health & etc? |

| the best kibble is not enough - too processed i use super 5 supplement from wellness. it is not synthetic so they can't overdose. compared to missing link it is better. all natural. a great product. you sprinkle it on their kibble. kibble alone is not enough because it's so processed. romeo's skin and coat has never looked better and he is very heal thy. he loves the taste. http://www.oldmotherhubbard.com/dogs...Sup5Supplement |

Romeos mommy, thank you so much. That link is so helpful. I saw some other member posted something like Glucosamine and Chondroitin tablets for Dogs, Nupro w/Joint Support, Pet-Tinic, Wysong Dentatreat. Is it necessary to feed them so many when you use super 5 supplement already? Thank you | ||
