The only 'con' is that grain-free foods have a substantially higher protein content. The ones I've looked into are around 42% protein, as opposed to 21-25% in other foods.

Many people believe that it's harmful to give yorkies a high protein food and that it causes health problems. However, I don't know if there is any definitive proof of this.
