The vet said it was due to the fat or the marrow in the bone. She said Yorkies can not digest fat very well and I don't want to make the same mistake again. Most people tell me to just feed him dry food and nothing else. He is a little picky and a little on the thin side. I am afraid if I just feed him dry he will get to skinny and if I feed him people food he will get sick. He also is doing the reverse sneeze thing which is really freaking me out because I think that is what brings on the trech problems. Can I get your take on these things? You sound like you have had yorkies for some time?
Thanks for any info.
Try some goats milk. I think it is a miracle come true for my dogs. I can't afford to give it to the adults very often but I have had 2 puppies from different mothers almost die from the mothers losing their milk. I am amazed at how well they did when I started feeding them the goats milk. For some reason we have a lot of problems with low blood sugar in our babies and the goats milk works wonders. It will put weigh on my adults but it is not cheap when you have as many dogs as I do. You can find it in the baking aisle in the grocery store. Sylvia
