Hi! I found this site, today, while researching my dog food. My two year old Dachshund, Isabel, eats Chickensoup for the Petlover's Soul.

A few months ago, when she had her last vet visit, I asked the vet if she was getting too heavy. He said she was not too heavy. . . . . . yet. He said she shouldn't gain any more weight, though.

Isabel weighed 10 pounds 8 ounces at that point. I started measuring her food, so she wouldn't gain any more weight, and I give her a handful of green beans for a snack. She gets 1/4 cup of chicken soup, twice a day, plus the grean beans, and an occasional chew toy.

She seems to be always hungry. She now weighs 10 pounds 4 ounces and is holding steady. (I got her a kitten for more exercise and they are having a blast.)

Should I be doing anything different in feeding her? I thought about getting the senior dogfood so she could eat more, but she is shiny and healthy, now. . . . . just always hungry.

I would appreciate suggestions.
