Confused little interest in food

Hi again, I have been watching how Alastor eats... and he barely does! I have now tried to get him to eat more often but he seems to have NO interest in food, other than last night he wanted my pizza. I am feeding him authority which is what his breeder said is the only think I should feed him, but I don't really know why she has that oppinion. I feed him a bit of wet mixed with dry. Do you think he has so little energy because he doesn't eat enough? I have taken to hand feeding him, even though I know that could cause a very bad habit, and he tries to eat a bit more that way but really doesn't seem to care if he eats or not. I also think he is rather thin, but haven't had a yorkie before. I can feel his ribs and hip bones but do think there is a very thin layer of fat on his brisket. I did just have him at the vet on friday and he said Alastor is healthy. Am I just being paranoid?
