I have 2 yorkies and 1 yorkiepoo. My oldest yorkie is 8 (I got him when he was 3) and I got my other yorkie when he was 8 weeks old. Both of my yorkies are healthy. My oldest one gets a sore throat from time to time but my younger one so far (he is 14 months old) hasn't really had any problems. Neither has my yorkiepoo which I got from the shelter when he was 9 months old (he was surrendered because they couldn't housebreak him). I think there are some dogs that have problems no matter the breed and others are fine just like people. I wouldn't be afraid to get another yorkie myself. As a matter of fact I am talking to the breeder that I got my baby yorkie from about possibly getting another one a little later. My breeder is in Mississippi. |
