How old is she - they still should be fed 3 times a day until 6 months and twice a day after that - girls do tend to be smaller than boys :wave:
Oh yeah.. one more quesion! :)
Dolly gets fed twice a day.. once in the morning and once at night. She is soooo skinny though! Is this common in chi's? I just saw another baby chi tonight and she was much bigger than Dolly. Maybe because it was male.

Yes she is still getting puppy food and stuff. Most of the time I feed her and she doesn't even eat it all anyways. But I will now feed her 3 times a day.
I have to free feed Pip (7 months old)-he never got into eating when we put the food down, he never eats at the same time. He is skinny too though and we want to beef him up a little. He is healthy, just skinny.
Poppy is a little piggy! I feed her 3 times a day and she just wolfs it down! At least I know exactly when she is going to need to do her business...its like clockwork now which is so good!
