She gets half of a beggin' strips after her bath and blow-dry, followed by a bully stick. She really likes Cheerios though and it's cheap.
They do like Cheerios don't they? I'd consider ditching those beggin strips though - very yucky ingredients and LOTS of fat which can cause issues for a Yorkie. A good friend of mine used those all the time for her GS, then she got a Yorkie - first time she gave him one - pancreatitis. Of course it's up to you, just letting you know in case you didn't realize how unhealthy they are

On the treat topic, my Dad used to give our Beagles "Snasages" treats all the time, well one of them had frequent loose stools - I told him to stop with the darn crappy snasages, he did, no more loose stool. I personal have a strict rule that I don't give any treats sold in a grocery store (except the occassional Cheerio of course).
