People milk is not good for ANY yorkie. it is too hard on the digestive system. have you tried the little jars of baby food? A lot of yorkies like the chicken sticks. You are going to have to get that gal eating dog food somehow. I'm sorry I don't have any more suggestions. I have had two pregnant bitches that were picky like that and spent a fortune buying what people told me to buy and even the prescription dog food from the vet. Finally, after much frustration, the vet told me to give her ANYTHING she would eat. She lived mostly on bologna and cheese for the longest time, I was so worried the babies would not thrive in her belly but they did and when they were born she got her appetite back. I woulddn't recommend people food to anyone but when you have a pregnant girl, you do what you have to do and sometimes it is the only option for getting something in your girl. I have also found that while it is not the best choice, most dogs LOVE Cesear's puppy food. it has a certain something about it and they will eat it when they turn their noses up at anything else. it is the one in the pink can at the grocery. people will say don't give this and don't give that but you have to get her eating something. believe me, as a breeder, I know your frustration.
