Helping New Puppy Adjust

Q: The paperwork they gave me instructing us on feeding our 2 lb, 9 wk Morkie says to feed her every 2-3 hrs around the clock to avoid hypoglycemia. How long should we do that? When can I just let her sleep, and when she awakens just take her out to potty?

A: The initial idea is to ensure your puppy eats enough. Once she eats refglarly on her own for 2-3 days you can start to spread her feedings out. I would continue checking on her for the first 5 days to be safe.
