Welcome to YT. Your Nikki reminds me of my Chipper. We had Chipper for 13 years and he would do anything for a treat and junk food. He too developed Pancreitis and had to be put on a special diet. He also had the itchies as he got older and developed a lot of food allergies. He would always still beg with his beautiful brown eyes for all those things he could not have. It was really hard to stay strong when they do every trick in the book to break you down. Chipper eventually developed bladder stones and during surgery they discovered he had bladder cancer and passed on a few weeks later. I now know I was responsible for all his health problems and I learned the hard way how to properly take care of a Yorkie. I now have a new baby girl and she only eats the best foods and I'm a fanantic about what goes in her stomach.
