Thanks Rini! My puppies will be 10 weeks old tomorrow. You are probably right about the vet. I was much happier when I took them for their 6 week shots. She checked their legs and ears (almost let one fall - but she caught her). I was just so worried about them back then, but now they are all bouncing beautiful babies and the entire office loves them. I guess noone can resist a yorkie. They act like they are the best babies they have ever seen. No crying or whining. Now if I didn't have to keep them all, I could be a breeder - but 7 is all I can keep, and my husband won't even agree to that.
