I'm sorry to hear about Betty Boop! Many might disagree with me but I think I'd take her off of kibble for a while if she were my dog. Merrick Grammie's Pot Pie is an OK product - I used to use it in conjuction with dog food for my boys. But, Merrick has had problems recently with contamination in their treats. The company also has had quality assurance issues.
Yorkies are also prone to IBD and as you know LS and MVD. Just curious, has BB had a BAT? These are symptoms we had with Daisy and battled for years before she was diagnosed with liver probs and IBD and allergies.
I'd probably opt for obedience training and reinforcement over the muzzle but that is not a quick fix unless you are really committed. It can work, Teddy kept eating everything and I taught him the LEAVE IT command and he is 97% compliant. Not quite 100, but Teddy never will be 100% compliant at anything except sleeping, playing and eating. LOL
Thoughts are with you and BB!
