Thank you for the reply.

Oh no....I do not want to breed...Tink is being spayed at 6 mths.

I just wondered if there is long term problems once they have had a hernia, as I put in an internet search for hernia's in Yorkshire Terriers and a few sites on Yorkies have come up with this info:

This breed suffers few serious health problems. It does have dental issues such as retained baby teeth. This breed can also suffer from hernia or hypoglycemia.

Which I did not know and with all you Yorkie owners I wondered how many have had hernia problems?

Thank you
