He can't eat Merricks anymore because he makes a HUGE mess trying to pick out the little bits of dried vege's and fruits instead of eating the kibbles and i am tired of sorting out the kibbles Does anyone know of anything to help with thinner hair on a yorkie? or weight gain? he is so skinny even though i've tried to feed him good food since he was little.
Have you tried Canidae... My dog is not really a picky eater, but there was a big difference on appetite (or loving his food) when I switched him to Canidae from Science Diet. I mean he would eat the Science Diet, but he would only eat until he's content (hunger feeling is gone). But when I switched him to Canidae, he would eat constantly. I just leave his food out for him (I take his food & water away at 8-8:30 so he doesnt wake me up in the middle of the night to go pee/poo outside) and he eats - a lot... He's gained weight since I've put him on Canidae. I've tried Avoder since my baby has dry skin, but he lost some weight coz he didnt like it. So I would try and email Canidae and see if they send you a free sample.

Good Luck!
