A good toy dog breeder does not release her puppies before they are 12 weeks, and if they happen to be tiny she will keep them even longer. One reason is that sometimes the stress on a tiny dog being taken from their mother causes health problems, and another is so that they are well socialized and the breeder is sure that they are healthy. They were pretty good sized, but still yorkies are tiny dogs. Why did you take this pup to her vet instead of one of your chosing? Sounds to me like her vet was not very knowledgeable in the toy breeds. That is something you have to check for when you do find a vet, make sure they know about toy breeds, because a toy breed can dehydrate in just a few hours where larger dogs can last much longer before becoming critical.
