Welcome! You'll find a wide variety of opinions on what the "best" food is. Yorkies are prone to digestive issues so that is definitely something to keep in mind when selecting a food. As for what is typical for a yorkie? They will steal your heart and make you laugh. They love to be with you. As for another tip, I'd suggest visiting the grooming area of the forum...yorkies need daily grooming. I use a Madan pin brush on mine and a small 4" safari comb. Also, your yorkie should be walked only on a harness. I use the Choke-Free brand and love it, but many people also like buddy belts. My dogs wear a thin neck collar with ID tags but never walked on a collar. They also are microchipped, so if your breeder hasn't done this, you could have it done when the pup is neutered (and most vets will do this at about 6 months old so any retained baby teeth can also be removed).

I wish you great luck and happiness with your new yorkie!
