I made my opinion from Vet advice and stats and research I have done. Again, this is only my opinion I have drawn from some of the horror stories I have read and heard about. Please don't take what I wrote previously as an attack. I truly didn't mean to offend. A scratch of the cornea is not something I would never put in a catagory of being sickly. Things of that nature can happen if the dog is 3 pounds or 12.  I never have welcomed you to Yorkie Talk and would like to do so at this time. Thanks for getting in there and speaking your mind.  justus...Kirk and Mary |
Kirk & Mary,
I am not upset at all !!

We are all expressing our opinions and why should anyone get mad about that. Opinions are like belly buttons we all have them. No one is right and no one is wrong from a opinion in my eyes. You were sharing what you have heard. And I was sharing that I know of many little yorkies that aren't. I suppose it just depends maybe on the dog not the size. Thank you for the warm welcome!! Let's all keep sharing!!!
