| Is Olive Oil OK? I feed my Yorkie Newman's Own dog treats and when I first bought them he loved them and would eat them with no problem. Now that he has had them for a couple of weeks I think he is tired of them. So in order to get him to eat it I dipped them in a little bit of olive oil. Is it OK to give Yorkies a little olive oil? I hope so because it's the only way he eats these treats and there are a lot left. |

| Some people put it on their food to improve coat quality. I dont know if it works. Also you can gve it to a dog that is constipated and it helps loosten stools
