Congratulations and Happy Birthday!!! As others have said, I wouldn't change his diet for at least a week or until he gets used to his new surroundings. After that, you have to do it gradually.

The spray you are referring to is called "Bitter Apple". I've used it, and I had good luck with it. I'm with mine all the time, so when I would see them start to chew on something, I would spray a little on what they were chewing. It stopped them from ever chewing on the furniture, etc. My boys used to try to chew my socks on my feet, so I would spray a little on my socks. I was able to break that habit really quick, as they didn't like the Bitter Apple. You may not have a chewing problem since yours is a little older. Just be sure to provide lots of bully sticks and chew toys to keep him busy.

I wish you the best of luck, and I hope you enjoy your new yorkie!
