For some reason many yorkies have trouble losing there baby teeth. Joey's vet pulled 5 baby teeth when he was neutered. This is very common. If you allow the two sets to remain the permanent set becomes decayed.

They usually don't clean the teeth this early. Not sure where the fish smell comes from, but the blood smell is from teething. Like I said above, baby teeth might need to be pulled if he's not losing them on his own. Make sure he has lots of chew toys and I use PetzLife spray to help ensure good dental hygiene along with brushing.
