Yorkshire Terrier + Carrots
Yes, in moderation.
The verdict
Carrots are generally considered a safe and healthy treat for dogs, including small breeds like a 6lb Yorkshire Terrier, due to their low toxicity and nutritional benefits. The primary considerations for a dog of this size are portion control to avoid digestive upset and ensuring carrots are cut into small, manageable pieces to prevent choking hazards.

Recommended next steps
Monitor your Yorkshire Terrier closely for any signs of mild digestive upset over the next 12 hours, such as loose stools or increased gas. Ensure they have access to fresh water.
