What do you feed your fussy 'Yorkie' ?

They have a few different bowls, plastic, ceramic and metal but I always use the plastic one. Cermaic one is used for their water. They don't wear collars, I have their I'd tag on their harness but obvioualy they only wear that when out for walks. None of my dogs have ever wore a collar indoors in case they get it caught.

The problem with the Kong is that its only small and its time taking and messy keep filling the Kong three times for each dog twice per day as not all their meal fits into it so I would prefer they ate out their bowl at meal times and have the Kong as a treat to put a filling inside that will last longer than a few minutes.

I have been looking at the Applaws wet food but that is quite expensive too , around £1.10 for a small tin.

I posted a 50% off voucher on here a few months ago, for Applaws dry food although I'm not sure if it is still valid.

Yes that is dear, the Applaws wet is way more expensive than their dried? I used the vouchers they have expired now!

Will they eat if you just scatter the biscuits on the floor?
Alternatively, there are other food dispensing toys that may be easier to fill than a Kong, e.g. ones that clip/screw apart to fill up

They will eat the first few then walk away. I have just been out and bought a packet of the NatureDiet you recommended. I will add a bit to their dry food, adding less each day until they start to eat their dry. I probably get shot down in flames as this will apparently be their 6th change in the 8th month I have had them. Although they've always been on JWB turkey and rice and I have just tried the other flavours as treats but they weren't interested. The chicken was used as a way to temp them to eat their dinner and the naturediet was purchased for the same reason since they have poor appetites.
