There are tons of people foods that Yorkies can have even if you don't want to homecook. How about boiled white meat chicken (no skin, no fat), lettuce, carrot (better cooked or pulverized but okay raw in small amounts), green beans, squash, sweet potato and regular potato (peeled and cooked), watermelon, peeled apple, Cheerios, banana, rice...

I was thinking of going to a wet dog food; the wife is adamant about no table scrap type food (nothing we could eat). I was thinking maybe the food where that lil fluffy dog wakes up its master and she feeds it the food with two baby carrots on the side? (I couldnt tell ya the name of the food to save my life lol)

Thanks for the suggestion and info about lactose intolerance. I would have never knew. As I mentioned the Labs I had would eat everything from kibble to small trees, so I assumed milk wasnt gonna be bad for them LOL.
