There are a lot of strikes against this food for me (don't like such high protein, don't feed raw, I wonder about the company, etc.). But when I said not suitable, I meant the fat content. Yorkies are prone to pancreatitis. Some people believe dogs don't get pancreatitis if the fat is raw, but a google sesrch showing posts from people who fed raw and ended up with a pancreatitis dog has convinced me otherwise.
The fat content probably won't hurt more dogs. But if your dog is predisposed to pancreas issues (and yorkies as a breed are) then you might find out the scary way that that's the case.
