I did buy some of that soft hamburger type stuff in a package just to mix w/ his proplan every now and then for a treat. Well I found that he would pick out the proplan and spit it on the floor and just eat the hamburger stuff
If he is doing well on the ProPlan (not itching, no dry skin, no ear infections, no biting at his feet) then there is no need to change food, especially if he is eating it well. Yorkies are a VERY VERY picky breed. If you change foods, he is liable to turn his nose up at it. It is better for him to eat a slightly lower quality food and actually like it and eat it than to feed him a really high quality food and him not eat at all. And ProPlan is not bad, as long as he is not showing any signs of allergies.
