| How much Protein to feed? Ok I have been researching dog foods forever now and reading lots of info that all has a different idea of how much the protein should be in the food for a yorkie. Wellness is a 5 star which only has 22%, but other 5 stars have up to 28% so here is my question-- What percent of protein is best for Yorkie Puppies? Adults? Breeding Females/Males?

Donating YT 10K Club Member | I feed mine wellness. Yorkies are prone to trouble from too much protein so I stick with the lower amount. I feed my puppy the adult formula also. Puppy formulas usually have a higher protein count. If I owned a large breed puppy...I would be inclined to feed puppy food simply because of their rapid growth.

| My girls get the Life's Abundance and it has 26% protein for the regular formula and 28.5% protein for the weight loss formula. All my girl's get a mixture of both formulas. |
