Default Why do yorkies eat the way they do?

I've been watching Lola very closely since we got her home, and she eats like a little bird! I've noticed by reading through these forums that a lot of yorkies seem to be that way. My other dogs, even my little chihuahuas, eat the majority of their food in the morning then small amounts periodically the rest of the day (I let them free feed), but Lola will literally take one little bit of food at a time and walk away from her food dish without taking any more.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to get her to eat more at a time, or is it just the way they are? I even tried putting a small amount of soft food in with her dry food, but she doesn't like it. I guess as long as she stays healthy and doesn't lose weight, I won't worry about it too much.
