Growth Spurts? Tucker (15 weeks old) will have days where he devours his food the second I put it down and then acts like he'd still like more. After 3-5 days of that, he'll nibble at his food and act like he could care less, often not even finishing it at a meal time. That will last a few days. His weight if fine. He was right at 3lbs. at 12 weeks which will likely put him at 6-7lbs as an adult. He naps quite a bit, but plays long and hard when he is on a roll. He seems totally healthy other than the few days of not having a big appetite. He has never shown signs of low blood sugar, or anything.
Is this normal? Do these little guys have growth spurts like human babies? I feed him Nutro Natural Choice Lamb & Rice Puppy.
Thanks,
Julie and Tucker |
