| MY yorkie shakes and breaths really heavy My yorkie in which i got on thursday is 11 weeks old is always shaking after we leave her on her own and then go back into the room, is this becuase she is so young Also, when she is falling asleep or she has just woke up, she breaths very heavy threw her nose, its almost like she can't get enough oxygen, she was at the vet on saturday and she said she was fine but i dont know, alot of poeple told me it might be just a nervous thing because she is so young and only getting used to her surrounding, What do you guys think?

| I don't really know, but I am sure people will be able to answer your questions better than me, but my advice is to make sure she always has food and water to nibble and sip here and there. When these little ones are young and tiny, they burn up energy soooooooooo quickly. Also, make sure that you have Nutrical and make sure to give her some daily, until she gets a bit older. This will prevent any Hypoglycemic attackes. |

BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | the shaking is from anxiety, she don't want to be alone. Does she have her own crate? She needs her own "space" maybe have a stuffed animal or a blanky in there for her. You may want to sleep with the blanky so it gets your smell on it, this might comfort her to where she thinks she is with you. I would get a 2nd opinion on a vet for the other problem. |

| she has her own bed and free run of the house, the tv/radio is always left on for her so she doesnt feel alone and she always has toys/fresh food around her

| Oh, FREE RUN - Is probably not a good idea. TJ and Roxy were both contained in a spare room when left home alone. I put a 'baby gate' up to keep them in there. They were allowed out when I was home, but again, I contained them to where I was. When they were about 1.5 years old, that's when they were allowed FREE RUN |

| Yes, I would leave the radio on too! And I would leave my PJ tee shirt in their bed, so they had me to smell! |

| The heavy breathing I'm not sure about. It is allergey season and she could have an alleregy. But, if you are concerned, then bring her back to the Vet. |
