Congratulations!!! You will love having a yorkie and being here. Please ask all the questions you have we will not thin you're being rude!
Small puppies are very prone to low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) and cab go down hill very quickly when it happens. Signs are wobblyness, falling over, very lethargic, seizures. The way to avoid it is to make sure your baby has food all the time and make sure she is eating every few hours even during the night. My Cali had 3 episodes when she was a puppy and all required er visits. There is a product called Nurtical that you can buy at pet stores and giving a little of this when they are not eating enough or stressed can really help. Some people give it to them every day when they are really tiny.
