| Have you ever heard of yorkies liking grapefruit? My yorkie Harley loves grapefruit, I have read all the postings on toxic foods including grapes and raisins but he loves grapefruit, lettuce, green beans. I think he would eat about anything if I would let him, but I don't. Thanks |

| I've never heard of grapefruit for Yorkies -- but I don't think it's one of the dangerous foods. Mine likes the little mandarin oranges in a can, but I notice if I give him too many he gets a little diarhea. He LOVES mango! I get it fresh or frozen and he just smacks his little lips and begs for more.

| I wouldn't worry too much but be careful with grapefruit because it lowers blood pressure, and if eatten in high quantities it can be dangerous. I don't know what the quantities would be for a dog that size but just don't give him much, is what I would say.
