I also have an MVD dog. We feed Hills L/D and a home cooked diet specially formulated for her. Our dog also has severe allergies and Inflammatory bowel disease so the Royal Canin is out.

Before we found out our dog had MVD, she would not eat very much or very often. She would eat one or two kibble at a time and then stop. Like your dog, she was playful and happy. Once she was on a diet for MVD dogs, she ate more and her overall condition improved as did her liver functioning. We now have the opposite problem - she is always starving and barking at us for more food. She's slightly overweight so we stick with low calorie treats primarily made with oat flour since she has food intolerances to pretty much everything else.

Good luck with your yorkie. I hope you will keep us posted.
