Hello Yorkie Experts

Please help me!! I am so tired of Snickers and his picky eating issues. I finally have found a food he will KIND OF eat, it's Natural Balance Sweet Potato and Venison. Now, I notice he is not very interested in eating in the morning, so yesterday I used a sample bag of THK Embark and he liked it. I never take that for any worth b/c chances are, he will not like it again, but this morning he ate it. Seems after he eats that he likes to nibble on some kibble which I am ok with. What do you all think about feeding him a combo of Embark and NB Venison?? I notice NB has a lower protein & less meat than most grainless foods, and thought if he would do well on the combo but wanted to ask 1st. Please be blunt if this is a dumb idea....

Also, he did poop more than before after trying the Embark but he did also have an off schedule Booda Bone b/c his teeth are falling out and that could have caused the extra poop too.

I would love to hear your thoughts....I hope they are positive b/c I think Snick would do well on it, plus I like the kibble to help with teeth cleaning.

THANKS AS ALWAYS-
-Viv & Snick

Ps..His treats only consists of Wellness Grainless Jerky which he adores. He uses Venison right now.
