I agree with Wiley's Mom....

Pixie walks with a little bit of an imbalance. We took her to the vet and had her checked for liver shunt, but 'thank goodness' it wasn't. It turned out to be an inner ear problem due to an ear infection she had when we got her. We knew she had an infection, and got drops, but the infection was in the inner ear and the drops did not work. We ended up putting her on antibiotics which cleared it up, but the damage was already done. But despite her imbalance, she can 'run like the wind'!!!!

I have heard, but don't know if it's true, that a yorkie will learn to live with an ear infection if it's not treated. So don't go too long before getting her checked out.

Definitely get her checked for liver shunt.

Keep us posted. She's a doll!!!
