So my little one is only about 2 and half months old. I feed her puppy food but of course she has no interest in it and will only eat our older dog's big dog food. She can chew it up fine, t he size of the food is not an issue, but I am wondering if this is safe for her. Can it be bad for her health to eat regular dog food when she is still a puppy?

And vice versa our older dog LOVES to eat the puppy food. The grass is always greener... Is puppy food bad for older dogs?

I have been trying so hard to just get them both to eat their OWN food out of their OWN bowl but nothing works...what can I do?!

Any suggestions or info would help!!

Oh I also have one more question I'll just throw in. Is it bad for yorkies to eat rawhide bones? Our dogs love them but I worry that they can't be good.

Thanks in advance.
