| Puppies Food How old should Cooper be before we take the dry food away from him all the time. He doesnt eat alot during the day plus I was wondering if chicken and rice would hurt him to have every day. |

| There is no reason why you should not leave dry food out all day. Unless your yorkie is fat, then it most definately will not hurt to free feed all day by leaving food always out. As far as I know, chicken and rice and not bad for yorkies. I feed Hobbs boiled chicken from time to time and he loves it. However, I don't feed it to him everyday. The best thing for dogs to eat is high quality dog food...it has the nutritional balance that dogs need. From time to time you could give him human food, like chicken and rice, as a treat. |

| I don't free feed any of my babies . . . My Annika especially eats a lot and eats fast and therefore she gets bloated and throws it all up . . . so I ration her in small batches but more frequently as suggested by my vet. This is also one way of knowing if they are acting strange - if they don't eat their food . . . |
