That makes me even more careful about making a swift decision about my babies diet.

I've been on this roller coaster for about 2 years, reading, asking, Googling, you name it. And I still haven't found my way into a better nutrition for my fur-kids Not because the advice you get here by YTers in not great and well intentioned, but because Yorkies are different, special, delicate and so worth turning every stone.
I know this thread is about raw feeding, but since you mentioned home cooking, I wanted to weigh in. My dogs have been fed home cooked food for their entire lives. I suggest www.petdiets.com as a starting point. This nutritionist is a board certified veterinary nutritionist and has many yorkie clients.
