My little cutepuff Bella has been extremely picky since day one. When she first came home she would not eat the rccommended food, Eukanuba dry Puppy food and Ceasar's canned Puppy food . Since then I have tried Beneful dry, Iams dry, now Kibbles and bits (she only eats selects peices out of this and leaves the rest). I have tried Beneful canned, Mighty dog and Little Champions Pedigree. With no success. But after joining YT I have learned so much about thier diets, likes and dislikes. I am going to head To my nearest Pet Supply store and see if I can find the Natures Valley or Blue Buffalo raw. I have been feeding her mostly people food. Chicken and Chopped Beef (90% lean), She loves steak, and certain veggies (peas, potatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, I am desperate. We went to Virginia recently I had to cook up a big batch of Chopped beef, Potatoes and Peas portion it into little bags and freeze for the trip. Would have been so much easier if she ate canned food. My vet said to put the food down when hungry she will eat but sometimes it is a few day and all she eats is a few kibbles of dry. Then I feel horrible and give her people food. Also one day she will eat a certain people food the next day she won't even touch it. I was wondering if anyone else has gone through this with there yorkie. And if anyone has solutions. Thanks

She loves spinach is this good for her. I have to laugh because after every meal, (when she eats) she looks up from her plate after she eats and lets out a good burp. Today I steamed boneless chicken breast, steamed broccoli and spinach, chopped up real fine for the next 2 days. She ate all but a few pieces of broccoli.
