Yes i know all about that trust me i knew nothing about yorkies the night my daughter brought her home. But after her sugar drop ans seizure and she had to go to a breeder friend to take care of her for over a week i got educated on what i could as fast as i could. She eats like a piggy (free feed) drinks like a fish now and plays her little but off. I am not concerned that she is sick in any way because i have taken her to the vet so many times even over a simple sneeze and she is a healthy little bugger. And yes the breeder was only in it for the money she had already sold the mother before the pups were even 7 weeks old It was rough at first but thanks to the wonderful people on yt and their advice i have learned so much and have been able to keep the little sweety healthy my concern is her gaining weight so slowly i was checking to see if anyone else had this problem or maybe it was just her because we are really praying she will not be a tiny one we are praying for at least 4 lbs. Thank you so much for your advice like i said before it is because of yt that Bella is here today IMHO
