hi! that's so great! The dog food depends on what your breeder has been feeding her, and she'll probably provide you with some food at least for the first few days. It's always helpful to do as much research as you can on different kinds of food, as well. I'm in the process of switching my little guy to Wellness Puppy. He was getting Royal Canine puppy from the breeder which is fine but i feel like Wellness has more nutritional value. When it comes to the stuff you'll definitely NEED, Nutrical comes to mind. Nutrical is high calorie supplement that helps yorkies avoid low blood sugar, AKA Hypoglycemia. Since yorkies are so small, especially as puppies, you really need to make sure they are eating enough. If you ever feel like she hasnt had enough to eat, just give her a teaspoon of nutrical just in case. Also the basics, a crate, wee-wee pads, food and water bowls, toys etc. That stuff is easy to find at any petco or local store. Just look for things that are the appropriate size, small! In my opinion the most important things are the food and Nutrical! Good luck!
