| Not eating to much i just recently got my new yorkie puppy 4 days ago. When i got him they told me he was eating 1/2 cup 3 times a day he has ate no where near that amount i give him 1/2 in the am and he don't finish it by the next morning. He is only 2 months old. this is my first puppy, i unno if i am doing something wrong? when we go to bed i have a big excerise cage he sleeps in and also stays in when were not home. but when were here he has free fun of the house ... he just don't wanna eat he seems to eat more thoe when i place it on the floor out of his bowl or out of my hand. He is also it itching really badly but there isnt any fleas and it inst dry skin. |

| Well... hopefully u havnt been giving him too many "table scraps" or treats other than his food. Sounds like he's just being spoiled and letting you know he prefers the other stuff... Meka gets that way from time to time, especially around dinner when she smells our food, she will literally turn her nose up to her own food... but after seeing I dont give in - then she eats her own. Theres times that Ive had to feed her a lil by hand, before she will eat on her own and shes 6 mo. With the itching - you should research a different brand of food. From what Ive read, there's something in the food thats giving him allergies (which seems to be common) and another thing that Ive experienced with Meka. If you've changed the food already, than I'd take him to a vet to check for rashes or something...
