Hey Kat - she is soooooooooooo cute - Moxi my 3 month old didn't eat worth a crap in the beginning either, but as long as she's drinking i wouldn't worry to much, they won't starve themselves, she'll do it when she's ready, all mine did and now the two older ones are on lighter food, cause I let them free feed, and let them have table scraps (to much) now they get carrots, apples & orange sections, or any other veggie or fruit we're eating for dinner, instead of the main course, okay chicken about once a week - but I won't give them anything I won't eat myself, I've switched them to Innova food, and they seem to like it so far, I make thier treats myself, and they get two a day each, It's hard to watch what they eat here, I own a daycare, and the kids like to feed the animals, so I have to put the dogs in another room at meals(except dinner) and even at that time I have to watch them - my daughter and hubby are horrible about giving in to thier "sad
little faces" WOW congrats on the puppy training - my first two were so fast at it too - but my Moxi (3 month old) is my problem child - she misses by a foot and talks back to my hubby when he tells her NO - she wimpers(cries) and runs to me as if she is telling on him, which doesn't help her any because I start laughing because it's sooooo dang cute - so I take her to the pad and tell her excitedly good girl - go potty and she just wiggles, and wimpers for me to pick her up - she's pathetically spoiled - Tee hee no more than the other two !! Quirky is the word for chihuahua's - neither Tiki or Moxi will eat food in a bowl - they take thier feet and push some out of the bowl and eat it on the floor - or Tiki will put a bunch in her mouth (like a chipmunk) and eat it on the couch - or hoard it for later. - QUIRKY IS RIGHT !! Moxi will pick up her
puppy pad and take it to where SHE wants it - I wouldn't care if she would actually hit it when she did go - I actually had the vet check her eyes last week at the vet, because I thought she couldn't see the thing - I told Moxi she has no excuse now - the vet(my mom's friend) says she sees fine - she's just plain stubborn. I just don't know where she's getting it from - as she looked right at me (sarcastically) - NICE HUH? congrats again - Have fun with Tia !!!
