I've always fed our cairn terrier Solid Gold plus Solid Gold Sea Meal for the main diet and then add raw vegetables on top. Our 18 week old yorkie eats the same main diet with a topping of minced uncooked carrots or cooked brocoli--just the florets. Our breeder suggested frozen peas as a treat, and he seems to like them. Because terriers often have problems with allergies and their skin, I've never given Cheerios as a treat because of the wheat. I've also not given any fruit because of concern for sugar/fructose and teeth--I'm not a frequent brusher. This diet works well for both our dogs.
