| Did you switch it slowly (over 3-10 days) or very quickly?

| If that is wet food the protien would be very very high, as I was looking at a wet food with 6% protien and when calculate it was over 20% .

| yeah then i would stick to 22% for a yorkie - high protein is for very active dogs and high protein can lead to health issues in this breed like stones and if a dog has liver disease which many have mvd it will cause problems - has your york been bile acid tested? |
