New Yorkie Member Hello, My husband and I just recently adopted a yorkie 2 weeks ago for my birthday, her name is Brandi and she is 7 years old, tiny lil thing, anyway what can I do for her scratching at her hind legs and biting at her paws?? and I have one more question... What kind of dogfood should I be giving her?? I am feeding her Eukneuba and Little Champions packets of Casserole Dinners with Beef, Noodles and Vegggies. Thank you for your help |
Welcome to YT! We would love to see pictures of your babies. I feed mine Purina Pro Plan...but that's just me. :) |
Hi and welcome to YT- might have her checked for allergies...one of our other dogs had them and did the same type of thing....good luck. |
Welcome! Nice to have you here! We feed the Diamond Lamb & Rice (it wasn't on the recall list and our state wasn't listed). We've been very pleased with it so far. |
welcome, welcome, welcome |
Hello and Welcome to Yorkie Talk. I feed my fur kids Diamond Lamb and Rice formula and at night they get a little Nutro Ultra canned mixed in with the dry. They free feed on dry through out the day. Regarding the itching it could be a number of things. Allergies, type of diet, shampoo not being rinsed well enough, flea allergies, etc. I would visit your vet for the best diagnosis to her itching/biting. You sure received a wonderful Birthday gift!! I look forward to seeing pictures of your Yorkie girl Brandi. :p |
Welcome to YT!!! What a great Birthday gift!!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: We would love to see pictures!!! :D :D :D |
Welcome to the best forum on the web!!! :D |
Hi and Welcome to YT. You will find really wonderful people here with a lot of great advise. Can't wait to see pictures of your baby. I free feed my two Solid Gold Wee Bit. Regarding the scratching/biting I would ask the vet, it could be a number of reasons. |
Hi! Dogs can be allergic to corn, which can make them itch. Corn is a main ingredient in Eukanuba. It might help to switch foods. Here's some good choices: Canidae Wellness Innova California Natural Natural Balance Ultra Premium (available at PetCo) Try Pet Supplies Plus or a small independent pet store or feed store, or the internet. You should also talk to the vet to see if there is another cause for the itching as well! |
Welcome to YT, can't wait to see pictures of your addition! |
New Yorkie Member Thank you all very much for your help I can't seem to get her picture up on the website but I got to make her a one photo album in the photo gallery if you would like to see her her picture is in there, when I can get her picture up under my name I will let you know....One more question she is scooting across the floor I am going to take her to the groomer's tomm to get her anal glands taken care of, could this make her sick?? Thanks for the help!! |
Welcome to yt. i agree maybe check for allergies but also make sure she doesnt have fleas... if its just dry skin you could bathe her with a little baby oil in the water... thats what i do. good luck with your new baby. |
