I personally know two dogs (not yorkies) who are allergic to grass. Both of them will chew their feet like mad. The solution one person is using...her dogs wears booties outside. The other allows his on the grass but immediately after coming in the house...he uses medicated wipes between his toes and paw pads. He also gets a dose of benedryll daily.

My mother's dog picked up mites in her feet from goose poop left in their yard. The problem wasn't so much the vet couldn't cure it...she would get re-infested. Once the geese were eliminated....she no longer had a problem.
