I think it's great that you have a different preference, I am not here to judge, but why is it that all you non professionals can tell me my dog is malnutritioned? When my vet says he's the best yorkie he's seen, and he's super smart and strong. Burn time:
Broccoli, a great source of vitamin C, folic acid, beta carotene and calcium.
Spinach is a powerhouse for iron, as well as supplying calcium, potassium and various antioxidants.
high in beta carotene, vitamin K, and vitamin C, as well as carotenoid pigments.
Carrots provide beta-carotene and sugar.
Bell peppers provide beta-carotene, antioxidants and fiber.
With the exception of vitamin A, white potatoes have just about every nutrient.
Quinoa is very mineral dense, and a complex carbohydrate, also gluten free.
Celery is high in nutritional value as it contains calcium, potassium, phosphorus, sodium and iron, and vitamins A, B, C.
Beets have beta-carotene, fiber, iron, potassium, magnesium, and vitamins A, B and C.
Salmon is high in unsaturated fat and omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids.
Chicken has high protien and low but healthy fat content.
Eggs are a source of easily digestible riboflavin and selenium, and the obvious protien. The eggs shells are ground up and added for calcium.
Apples have potassium, fiber, phytonutrients, flavonoids, vitamin C.
Bananas have potassium and carbohydrates.
Oranges have fiber, potassium, calcium, folic acid, iron, flavonoids, phytonutrients, vitamins A, C, B1 and B6.

You asked for opinions on the diet. I tried to tell you in a nice educational way. I know you think those foods are nutritious but you need to know the proper amounts of items to add. When you add too much of one thing you dilute the nutrients of other things. You're simply doing it wrong, and those of us who have dealt with real professionals (not Internet nonsense sites like the ones you quoted) fear for your dog. He may be a nice puppy but let's see what your vet says at age two or five or ten. Your vet seems inexperienced or at least lacking basic education to know the proper nutrition for puppies.
