| I started using Royan Canin for yorkies for both of mine, but then one had an allergy to the food so I have now changed to Natural Balance. I really like Natural Balance, I have also heard that Wellness is a really good food too. Hope this helps!

| I feed Merricks to both of mine. They love it! www.dogfoodanalysis.com is a great website to view food reviews based on a rating system. Most of us here feed 4 or 5 star foods.

| Wellness, Canidae or Natural Balance for kibble. Canidae or Evangers for canned. I like homecooked best.

| What do you think of the Eukubana, (? spelling), brand for small dogs? It seems many breeders start with this. |

Personally, I would chose to feed a higher quality food. It really is up to you though. I know lots of people that feed Eukanuba, Science Diet, or Iams and do just fine.

| I recently switched both my boys to Timberwolf Organics (5 star rated food). Of all the foods I've tried, this is the one they liked right away.
