What Do You Feed Your Yorkie? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Oliver gets Innova Adult small bites.

I have Natures Variety medallions for treats/ fill in - I buy different flavors - he likes them all.

BTW do NOT tell my 2 labs about the raw treats they would be horribly offended to know that he gets the good stuff and all they get is dry kibble - eeek!

My furykids eat Natural balance .

I have feed Royal Canin for years, but I recently star mixing it half/half with Wellness.

After doing a lot of research, I personally believed that limiting a dog to one variety of dog food all their life isn't the best for them as they won't get a big variety of vitamins and nutrient.

Home cooking is the best for the dog if you have the time.

Nature's Variety raw medallions, and I rotate between proteins. So far she loves them all and I have never seen a dog so happy and excited for their food!

FlDebra · 10-26-2009, 06:33 AM

All of mine are on Canidae Chicken & Rice All Life Stage food. That way I can free feed all of mine from Senior to Puppy &in between the same food.

Pets First Holistic Chicken & Brown Rice for Dogs is what we feed our Yorkies.
You can check them out at http://pets1st.com

Also I buy some wet food, usually wellness or something for a small treat a few days a week.

I love this food, and so do the dogs!!!
Also they deliver to your door!

You can not go wrong with Applaws dry dog food. I have tried everything else including Orijen and Applaws is the only food my dog will eat. It is not the cheapest but you get what you pay for and it contains 75% chicken and 25% vegetables. I am not sure that they sell it in the US but any one in the UK or Europe can get a free sample by just contacting them on their web site www.applaws.co.uk

lucirbc · 10-26-2009, 09:08 AM

I just started to feed Nature's Variety Praire. It is one all the furkids like. Coral gobbles it up. I have tried the venison and the beef, but Coral didnt seem to like the venison. I am going to try and rotate a few of the flavors.

jephersun · 10-26-2009, 09:26 AM

i feed him purina pro plan toy breed formula...i started out with eukanuba, but he really did not like it....
