| Hill's Prescription Diet Hi everyone I am Zach's mom and this is my first posting. I have been reading through all kinds of information and this sight has been really useful to me. We got Zach almost 2 months ago, he is now 4 months old. The first time I took him to the vet he told me to feed him Hill's Prescription Diet p/d and a/d I think, I bought it there. Anyway I am still feeding him this, and my vet encourages it. Is this right? Also we mix in some Eukanuba small breed and for dinner we add a little boiled chicken. I also read about Nutr-cal in a lot of threads, we are giving our little man Pet-tinic pediatric drops, are they the same thing? Sorry for all the question, I never owned a Yorkie before. Thanks for any help you can give. |

| feeding How big is your Yorkie puppy? If he is not tiny(under 2 pounds) and eats his dry mixed with the other food well, I would not worry about nutra-cal. I would make sure he gets at least 3/4 dry mixed with the other foods..you don't want to feed 3/4 moist to 1/4 dry. Good luck...and welcome...why not post to the general discussion and let everyone welcome you. |

| Welcome! Hello and welcome to Yorkie Talk. This site has helped me tremendously and I am sure you will learn to love it too, warning it can become addicting... Also congrats on your first yorkie. Yorkies are the best!!! Anyway, as far as Hill's Prescription Diet food, its the one out two types of food that my baby loves. The other is Three Dog Bakery. I love these brands because they are all natural and meant for easy digestion. As far as human food, my Chewy loves boiled chicken, white rice, and carrots. I give him this on special occasions. There is sooooooooo much to learn about our precious babies, when i first got my yorkie i bought a book on them and it helped alot. Good luck!
