[PyrNet-L] Weight

[Rsk1951@aol.com]

I m wondering if someone could tell me if it is common for pyrs, as they 
reach 5 years old, to start eating more? Sebastian will be 5 in Feb. and in 
the last 3 weeks has decided he wants breakfast.He never ate it before, in 
fact is not a big eater at all.I would say he averaged 2 cups of dry a day, 
with some kind of meat etc mixed in with it.He weighed about 113. Lean, but 
not skinny. He also gets walked ALOT so I figured this was a good weight.Now, 
he has been eating all his breakfast (1-1/2 cups dry mixed with cottage 
cheese) and dinner later.He was weighed yesterday and weighed 120. Vet said 
he wants him to stay at that weight, which I think means smaller meals but he 
eats so little anyway---at least I think he does--How much do your pyrs eat? 
I also has posted an earlier note on a limp Sebastian has.Vet does not know 
what it is and put him on Rimadyl for 10 days then if no improvement-on to 
x-rays. Thanks all.   Jill
