| First time yorkie owner has questions Hi, I am new here. I have a female yorkie and she will be a year old at the end of this month. My question is: Should I still use puppy shampoo for awhile? When should I switch her to adult food. Any input would be much appreciated. |

| Hi and welcome to YT! I see no problem with still using a puppy shampoo on your dog. It should be just fine. I switched Zeus to an all stages food when he was about 10 months old. You could switch now but the key is to gradually switch them by adding the new food to the old food and increase gradually each day. I do this over a two week period. Just my opinion and there are plenty of peple here who will help you as well. Please post a picture of your baby so we can see. |

| Hi and welcome, Using baby shampoo is fine. As suggested by Zeus08 you can switch food now but do it gradually and she should do fine. Let us know how she does when you do.
