If you wanted to be safe and keep fat content low, then 20% is a bit high. Almost never a reason to feed a food so high in fat.
Also, because it's a cat food, only cats have gone through any testing when eating it and there aren't going to be reports of things going wrong when dogs eat it because dogs don't eat it. So I do think there are much better choices out there for the average Yorkie. However, if you like the food and the brand, then I'd ask how they feel about feeding cat food. |
Thanks for the info. I figured since they say it's the exact same formula as dog food it would be ok. I'm only planning on giving it to my yorkie if I forget to thaw her raw food. I was gonna feed it to my Shih tzu regularly. Ill definitely ask my vet about that.
