Natural Balance has several limited ingredients dog foods that would not have any poultry in them. I do not recommend Calif. Natural, mine ended up with horrible digestive issues from it and I would guess the formula is no good anymore.
Tinned food is not complete, a dry kibble along with a tinned would work but most tinned dog foods contain liver and could include poultry liver. My yorkies do not do well with any tinned at all.
Acana is fairly good food I am sure they have some without poultry.
Also bear in mind, that often those YOrkies that seem to be finicky eaters are actually having digestive issues which could include a stomach upset without actually having diahrrea or vomiting issues. They just don't feel like eating thank you.
The common mistake is to try this try that dog food and they will eat one or the other but often because it is not a good food and is loaded with salt, sugar fat or all three. Sure the dog will go for it but is likely contributing to more issues and will not eat it again because they are more out of whack than ever.
Also check teeth or have your vet knowledgable in teeth in toy dogs check for you. An abcess that isn't obvious or broken tooth will cause them to be reluctant to eat.
