Default vets aren't nutrionists; quality foods for yorkies aren't a waste of money

wasting their money?
it is not a waste of money to get health food for your dog.
it is "not very smart" to save a few pennies and feed crappy dog food to dogs.

yea, they'll survive on crappy food, just like i will survive on McDonalds.
but it is still CRAP!

why would money even be a concern on TINY dogs like yorkies? i try to find the MOST expensive food i can, in hopes that it will be the healthiest for my baby.

If i am running a shelter and running out of money with starving dogs that weigh an average of 70-80 lbs. maybe i will feed them CRAPPY FOOD! like most commercial foods! (those foods are made with maximum profits in mind, therefore, cheapest ingredients they can get their greedy hands on)

vets like doctors, are not nutritionists. they prescribe pills, not diets!

i strongly and completely disagree with you for making the recommendation to have people feed "cheaper" food. yorkies deserve top quality foods. it's ok if you want to eat mcdonalds. i do. but i will not give my baby anything less than the best quality foods!
