Question two questions.. food/potty and in between...

Hi guys,
I wanted your advice on two issues I have with my little guy.

1. I am working on finding a better food for Tiesto after learning about the differences from other threads. He used to eat Nutro- Natural choice for small breed puppies and on Saturday I got him a small bag of Orijen for puppies to try it out after hearing a lot of good reviews about it. He seems to like the taste of it and eats it well although in smaller portions than he used to (I free feed him). The problem is that I noticed he started pooping more often and his poop is softer than it used to be (and smelly...) I am wanderring if it's temporary due to the change or maybe it's just that Orijen is not the best choice for him...?

2. The second question I have is also bathroom related lol...
We had our first playdate this Friday with another yorkie boy who came to our house. The guest yorkie apperantly is not housetrained very well and had accidents here and there. Then I noticed that Tiesto also started having accidents while playing with this guy. At first I thought that it's due to exsitment and he was probably too busy playing and didn't want to stop and go to his Pad... But the thing is that even after they left he kept doing so... (I have to say that he is not completly trained yet but he was good about going to his pads specially when downstairs and close to them). Now the thing also is that he started peeing more often, and i'm starting to think that maybe it's not just a step back from his potty training but maybe it's some kind of an infection? do dogs get those? I'm not sure what to do here... I really thought we are doing well with this issue and making progress but it seems that one playdate was all that was needed to undo all the hard work

Please share your thoughts and experience with both issues, Tiesto and I would appreciate it very much...
