| Not Eating FOR STRONG STOMACHS ONLY! I have read several posts on their yorkies not eating. Mine to are very finicky. I have tried several different foods, only to have them turn their noses up & walk away. The girls always want what I have, but their not getting it. Now with Max being so tiny, I know he needs to eat a balanced diet. He loves chicken & rice, carrots, apples, & greenbeans. But he won't touch his dry puppy kibbles. I have a solution to everyone's problems with this, if they can do it. Put a few kibbles in your mouth & act like they are the greatest thing. Let your puppy with his tongue get them from your mouth. They will gobble them up with your saliva on them. Even break up a few in your mouth & let them drop out. Your yorkie will gobble them up also. I figured If I can gobble up his kisses, I can do this. I wonder in that is an alpha thing?

| It works Great! He's eating. Sometimes he'll even eat the kibbles without me feeding them to him.

| You are a very good mommy, I don't think I would do that. But then again when my children (real kids) were young if they didn't eat their food, I wouldn't fix something else, I would wait until they were hungry enough to go back and eat it.

| YUCK !!!!! Do you realize what kibbles are made of??? 4D animals (Dead, Diseased, Dying or Disabled ) and discusting animal fat that is sprayed on kibbles in order for dogs to eat it. I switched Lilo lately to raw meet diet, and she love it. She used to be the pickiest eater ever, but I realize that I made her this way. So now she eat Natures Variety frozen medalions and raw chicken meet every day, and she gets EXCITED when I give her food. you should check "Abby's Mom" website for more info. http://www.geocities.com/havens_home/feedraw.htm
