I have a toy yorkiepoo, she is now around 5-6 pounds at almost 7 months. She still eats puppy food, and feed her Royal canine toy breed puppy food and also Royal canine small breed indoor puppy food as when the weather got colder, I didn’t take her out much, so felt she didn’t need the other formula, but both are nearly the same ingredients and smell, only difference I can tell is the kibble on the small breed indoor is slightly bigger, the toy breed kibble is probably the tiniest kibble I’ve seen, as my last doggie was on solid gold mighty mini dog food for many years and loved the heart shaped xsmall kibble. Hopefully I will transition my pup to that food soon, as I’m not a fan of the ingredients on the Royal canine, and bought her merrick small bites puppy food as well when I got her, but she didn’t take interest in that,mdespite the ingredients and overall quality better. Anyways I bring this up because I found she was scarfing her food up too quickly, so bought her a xsmall/small dog bowl slow feeder bowl on Amazon. The first day or two it worked a bit but then after that she would gobble her kibble up in less then 2 mins, typically by a minute. Wanted to try something else, as I don’t want a overweight puppy! And while she is far from Thst, it’s important to note that per the suggestions on the servings, I should be giving her about 1/2 a cup of food a day, five or take. I got measuring spoons to help w the process. Anyways, I love this little berry. It is very tiny, so I should note, it should not be purchased for medium or large breeds, but I think any doggie under 15 pounds would be ok. When I got this she weighed about 4.5 pounds or so, and would think that she gained a pound to pound and a half since then. It also smells lovely, really great minty scent. I was able to put 1/8 (or close to that amount) in the little hole. I did this over the slow feeder dog bowl so any bits that didn’t make it I’d just give her the bowl first and then the raspberry. I do typically feed her 3 times a day with about 1/8 a cup each feeding, sometimes a bit more during one of the feedings. I am soon hoping to just feed her twice a day with obviously about 1/4 a cup for each feeding. Though I don’t think I could fill it with 1/4 a cup, I might be able to. The only downside again, is that it is so small, that it seemed to fall somewhere on the floor or around my dresser that I can’t seem to locate it, which was a few weeks ago. My doggie has been sad since, and bought a different brand and type, called the pup can or something, also on Amazon, in the same bright pink. The can is also really tiny! It does fit at least 1/8 a cup of food, but I don’t like that it isn’t scented. It was also about $3-4 more. But I wanted to try something else, when really I should have bought another berry! If I can’t find it soon I will just repurchase a new one because I think it’s good to have two around, even if they are different brands. It definitely slows the process of her eating down, so at least she takes over 5 minutes, I think longer with the berry, close to ten or longer, so she doesn’t inhale her food in a second. I definitely recommend this to any toy breed owners with doggies that eat way too quick, also her tail wags when I present it to her, so she has a fun time earning her kibble with it!
