You'll get alot of different advice on the type of dog food you are feeding him....However I would NEVER feed Rawhide chews to your baby!! It is very dangerous....they make safer chews ....such as Bully sticks....that are very similiar to rawhide...but not dangerous.. I wouldn't be surprised that the rawhide is giving him diarrhea...
You can do research on the best types of kibble to feed your little one...I personally only feed premium food to my girls...Iams isn't premium...do you have a Pet Store in town...they usually carry higher quality food...I wouldn't buy any dog food from walmart..or grocery stores they are all low quality foods....
And the type of food you feed could definately be why he is going potty so much...the better quality foods...the less poos...
Please don't keep feeding him rawhide....just because he likes it doesn't mean it's safe! You can research what types of chews are safe for yorkies...Nylabones are safe...etc...
Good luck!!!
