I hope I get some answers today. Yorkies remain a mystery to me.
Thanks, all, for your help and patience.

I have had short-term situations in the past where one dog had to be on a different diet due to illness, but am very thankful that it did not affect our ability to return to free-feeding. Our poodle, Beau, has had bad knees for his entire life (11.5 years), and we keep an eagle eye on him to make sure that he maintains his weight. He has never gone over 5 pounds, and when we travel we actually have to coax him to eat.
