What Brand of food do you use for you Yorkie? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

yougetthesmiles · 03-03-2006, 08:41 AM

I have tried several different kinds of food for Kloey and most she turned her nose to, finally I got Royal Canin for Yorkshire Terriers and she seems to like it. Does anyone else use this brand?
Also I groomed her yesterday and I noticed her hind legs are losing hair??? Whats with that?

I use Solid Gold wee bit. They love it. As for the hair, not sure.

Moose was eating royal cannin puppy when she was younger but it gave her gas and she threw up sometimes. I switched to Authority Harvest Baked Lamb and rice and just started mixing that with canadie dry to give a little variety.

I use Royal Canine for Yorkies also and Bailey loves it. I plan to start Morgan on RC for puppies I think, 32, when I get her in a few weeks.

Tiger's main food is Innova Puppy food . . but then I kinda fix it with other treats to make it "gourmet" . . . he loves it. Now I am worried when I need to board him should I go on a long vacation this September

He's not gonna want just plain Innova!

I got a sample of BilJac puppy in the mail when Debbie was a puppy and she really liked it so later on I bought some Adult. I did hear it was more fattening so when I need the next bag, I bought the reduced fat type. She likes it just as much. She's a little one at three pounds and I think the shape is easier for her to eat.

My2Furbabies · 03-03-2006, 09:24 AM

We use Nutro Lamb and Rice too!

honeybrown_43 · 03-03-2006, 09:43 AM

Jazzy eats Royal Canin as well. It's only going on week one since i've had her and when I first bought her home she would not eat. So her nana told me to mix it with Iams. When I did she tore it up!! Now I can't get her to really eat the Royal Canin alone. So i'm mixing the two together.

yougetthesmiles · 03-03-2006, 09:55 AM

when I brought Kloey home she would only eat out of my hand, no thankfully she eats all by herself!

JUDY's2yorkies · 03-03-2006, 10:00 AM
