I would take him in right away. Along with a general check up, make sure sure vet checks his knees for luxating patellas and does a bile acids test if you didn't have one done before he left the breeder's house.

Yorkies are 36 times more likely to have a liver shunt than all other breeds combined and Dr. Center recommends that all Yorkie puppies have a BAT before going to their new home.
