Default My puppy's breathing

Princess is my first puppy. I was walking her on a leash for about one week. We took her into the city and I bumped into two other yorkie owners who were shocked she was on a leash. They told me how important it was to get her a harness and explained about how her trachea can collapse. I ran out and bought her a harness. I tugged her a little on the leash the previous week b/c I had no idea it could harm her. If it was hurting her wouldn't she make some noise or yap. Can everyone hear their yorkies when they are breathing? When I hear her breath it is very light and she doesn't seem to be gasping for breathe or anything. I know this sounds ridiculous, but I have never had a puppy before. Knowing that I have been walking her on a leash for a week has me worried sick! i just want my baby to grow into a strong healthy dog. Thanks everyone and sorry this is so long!
