Is she very timid? Is that why you're saying she's not your "normal" yorkie?
I had a cat like that - spaying her was a necessity. She was the noisiest little thing when she was in heat, but it didn't change her personality at all.
It's sad that she hides in the closet when she's in heat. I would have a serious talk with the vet or a trainer if you trust them. Sounds like you have to weigh the consequences of her becoming more frightened if she has to have surgery.
