Hi Everyone,

I am new here so I will try to be brief.

My yorkie bites and licks her paws.
What causes this?

I have fed her Solid Gold Hundnflocken Dry Food Lamb Formula

Wellness for Allergies Dry Food.

and now am feeding her Dick VanPattens Lower Calorie dry food, because she is 9 and 1/4 years old. I try to keep the protein count and fat count down.

I feed her 1/4 cup in AM and 1/4 cup in PM

If it were up to her she would eat all day long!!!

Plus she gets treats during the day as I am unemployed at the moment.

What Food and or treats are the best ones for her They must be made, grown and produced in America. Preferably Organic without allergic ingredients.

Also they are saying alot of toys are made in China and it was shown on the news that a Nurse spend her own money to check the amount of lead in her dogs toys. Needless to say the counts were high.

When is this country going to wake up and test items that come into our Country for safety for everyone; Humans, Pets, etc.? It is so scarey.

Also she likes to chew I used to give her Rawhide Chips which she loved but stopped. Any suggestions that are safe would be appreciated.

Thanks so much for your suggestions!
