Go by her body condition Kristi, not the scale. She may not need much food to sustain her. If she's getting really bony and ribby, then you can worry. If she looks good - then she's obviously eating enough.

Mobie is somewhat like this now that he's the only pup here. He ate great when there were 3, "ok" when there were 2 & now that he's the only one he takes a bite & leaves & I have to get him back & basically sometimes hand feed him to get him to eat at all. I don't want him to not eat because he's still quite small. Never had any hypoglycemia issues but don't want them either! Raw fed pups definitely grow MUCH slower (most anyway)...Marley was super skinny until he hit his first birthday. Drove me nuts because he ate 6oz of food a day...sometimes more! Mobie is getting some raw meals (waiting on an order from hare-today--we're out of raw so everyone is getting premade atm). Anyway, how often is she eating Kristi? Maybe she's not getting enough time between meals to become hungry? She may benefit from eating 2 meals a day with a small snack in between...if she's getting more than that now anyway. But then she'd at least have time to get a rumbly belly.

I know you must be worried but I agree with tracy. She may just have some reserves that she's using up...puppy fat and all that. xx
