Age and Food Question - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Question regarding best food for both my Yorkies. I have two pups, Dudley (3 years old) and Doc (1.5 years old). They were eating a mix of Wellness puppy and Wellness Small Breed food, however given that Doc is not over a year old, what would be the best food to feed them? About a week ago I gave them both the puppy food alone, but after they had bad diarrhea.

I know Wellness is a good brand, but I figured I would ask the people in the know if there is a better food to give them given their age? Do you recommend I stay with Wellness? If so, what type?

Thank you in advance for any advice.

I've never fed Wellness but I know many people on here use it & have had no issues with it. It's a great food. I think you'd be ok feeding them both Wellness Small Breed Adult food since Doc is a little over a year. I'm sure neither of them are going to be growing much anymore so adult food should be suitable for them. Hopefully others will respond and correct me if I'm wrong, but that's my opinion!
