🐾 Why Yorkies Need Special Nutrition

Yorkshire Terriers are tiny but active dogs with sensitive stomachs and luxurious coats. Their ideal food should be:

• Grain-free or hypoallergenic to reduce digestive upset

• High in protein (30%+) for muscle tone and energy

• Small kibble size for easy chewing and dental support

• Rich in omega-3 and biotin for coat shine

• Free from fillers and artificial additives
