Welcome to the group! My name is Gao and I a proud momma of two chihuahuas. Aidan is a little over a year and paris is 11 months old. They are my spoiled little brats. I don't know much about homemade food. I feed mine purina pro plan small breed puppy chow and it's the only thing picky little paris will eat. I've tried everything from wysong to pedigree. Good luck and hope we have all the answers you need.
