Yorkies are extremely prone to pancreatitis and the risk of them getting it I feel would increase if they're fed constant table scraps like that. Like others have said, not all the food that we eat is good for us so imagine what it would do for a dog.
There are tons of great dog foods out there. You just have to find the one that works for your dog and do a little research. I've always been a fan of Blue Buffalo because it's what works the best for my dog. I tried numerous foods with her but she reacted the best to this food. Heck there's some other foods that I would probably try with her but I just don't want to take the risk of trying to give her a different food and have her not like it and have her become extremely picky.
Personally, I look for foods without corn, wheat, soy, by-products, artificial preservatives, etc. Basically, I look for the all natural foods, preferably grain-free. There's Blue Buffalo, Wellness, Taste of the Wild, Fromm, Now!, Go!....these are just a few brands out of a ton of different options. It can be very confusing but with a little patience and research you can find the perfect food for your dog. Good luck! |
