Mexico’s Killing Fields
What should my puppy chihuahua be eating at her age?
My mom’s friend gave us a 2 month old chihuahua and I don’t know what to feed her. We bought her puppy food but she doesn’t eat it and we serve her warm milk and she drinks that, but I feel that she is too skinny and should gain a little more pounds. Does anyone have any suggestion to what I should give her to eat?
omg! noooo please don’t give her anymore cow’s milk. that will make her very very sick
you want to make sure she eats every 2 hours. chihuahua’s have a super quick metabolism and their blood sugar will drop if not properly fed
get some eukaneuba or bill jack food (dry) and soak it in warm water… they can’t chew hard food yet and canned food is unhealthy and crap.
another good food is rachel ray’s "nutrish" dog food for small dogs… either one will be fine but you need to soften it.
if you notice her shaking bad, or just acting lethargic or sleepy, give her some karo corn syrup. it’s good to have some on hand in case you ever need it. please show your mom this message so she can get the proper stuff!

Please please please do not feed her cows milk - its fo COW’s, it is VERY BAD for your puppy and will make her VERY sick. you should try soft food for now and then introduce kibble.

Lactose in cow’s milk is not suitable for any other animal other than calves. Do not feed her milk because she will get diarrhea. Well she should be eating puppy kibbles. She may not want to eat because she is new to the environment. So give her some time. Try some dry puppy formula and put that in the food so she may be encouraged to eat it.

I own 4 Tea Cup Chihuahuas that I raised from birth <3
I would suggest some sort of wet or dry puppy chow.
