Zoey and your boys are absolutely adorable!!!

A little bit of plain yogurt or cottage cheese is good. Yorkies can get really bad teeth and I tend to think that the sugar in the water and the syrup on the food is a little too much for her. The nutrical, which is in a tube and is gel-like, given to her in the morning and at night should be plenty. You just squeeze a little out on your finger and rub it in her mouth - that way you know she got it. Also, you can start brushing her teeth with a dog toothpaste right away. Yorkies teeth can get bad and cause other health issues.

Oh, and please don't frequent Petland. It is the biggest supplier of puppymill dogs. By buying anything there you contribute to their monitary gain and continued business of puppymills. My Mia came from there.
