Dogfood - The yorkie food?
 

Hi, I was wondering what kind og dogfood you feed your Yorkies?

I am using Royal Canin Yorkshire Terrier and am very happy with that. Is that a popular brand in the USA? If you use it, how do you like it?
Do you prefer some other brand?

I also feed my little mix (Leon) the Yorkie food too and he likes it.
I buy the food in 7,5kg (16.5lb) packaging, it is also available in 1,5kg (3.3lb) packaging but no size in between is available in Iceland.
Can you buy a bag that is in between, like around 3 or 4kg (6.6 - 8.8lb)?

Btw. how do I make the link on, for ex. the word Yorkshire Terrier, in my earlier post go away, I did not put the link on the word, it just came.

In an earlier post I tried to take the tick out of "Automatically parse links in text" option below when I was sending the post, the post then didn´t work, the message did´t go on the forum until hours later. I am not even sure what "Automatically parse links in text" means :embarasse
I am going to try now, to see if I can send this post witout ticking "Automatically parse links in text"

The link still comes :/

I feed Canidae Lamb & Rice All Life Stages.
All Natural

The Yorkie in your Avatar has a beautiful long coat!

I feed Candiae as well.

I used to feed Royal Canine, but one of the main ingredients is corn (or maybe some other grain, I can't remember) and it made my Britney itch a lot. After I changed, she really stopped.

it doesnt have corn



you will see a lot of people on here use it. i have tried skoshi on tons of healthier dog foods and he will eat them the first time and then the next day doesnt want them. i have tried honest kitchen, Fromm, but he wont eat them now.

I switched Roxie from Royal Canin to Canidae All Life Stages and she loves it!

I have never seen my Yorkies love a food like Canidae!!!
I have one that is a very picky eater & doesn't eat very much.
He has actually gained a few ozs since on Canidae - which he needed.

Canidae All Life Stages
 

Canidae All Life Stages

I feed kikko Innova and he looooves its! and so do my parents dog who likes to go into kikko's playpen and steal a meal! lol.

but its great food, made of all human grade meat. i really couldn't decide between innova and candidae at first, i know both are good foods

Royal Canin food helps growing beautiful hair, but dries my baby's skin.
 

I feed Royal Canin to 3 of my yorkies before. Their hair grows long and beautiful, but I also found they have flaky skin since I start to use Royal Canin. One of my yorkies has really bad flaky skin, so I stop feeding him Royal Canin. I use Avoderm instead. After feeding him Avoderm, less than 5 days, I found it truly improved that. About 1 week or so, his flaky skin is gone. I also found his hair becomes softer. I was amazed how effective Avoderm dog food is. :D

If anyone's yorkie has flaky/dry skin, try Avoderm. You can see the result very soon.

Where do you get this AVoderm? My guy has flaky skin, but only in his ear (this is due to a previous skin infection/fungus) ...

recently i've used missing link and its helped a lot too .. but this avoderm sounds interesting ....:rolleyes:

Switched to Canidae
 

My Alyssa and Emily Kate were both eating Royal Canin Yorkshire food. They both seemed to love it and ate it well. Alyssa had a lot of allergies and scratched a lot. I read about Canide All Life Stages on YT and soon went on a search to find it. I discovered that several stores in my area carried it. I bought a bag ...hoping....but not really expecting the dogs to like it. They fought over it. Both loved the taste. I switched "cold turkey" and did not try to mix and ease into the new food. Within a week Alyssa's fur imporved. She had a shine to her fur and her energy level was like that of a much younger puppy. It has been 4 months now and I am still very pleased. I find it hard to believe what a change of food has done for my girls. I am sorry that I did not make the switch sooner.

Diesel has been on INNOVA for the longest time and does really well on it. :)

Royal Canin works for us!
 

:D Shelby & Seymour have been eating Royal Canin since we have had them. I have gotten some samples of Canidae that I have occasionally given them for "variety", but only a small amount at a time.
I really think RC has helped with their coats.
