Shaving the top third of the ear is the standard look for Yorkies; if they are droopy you shave the entire ear. I personally don't believe that you should take her out until she's had all her shots. Going to someone's home who doesn't have a dog might be safe, don't let children ever hold her. I don't believe in giving Nutical as a preventative, it can actually cause low blood sugar, it should only be given when signs of hypoglycemia are present. Just being "very tired and blah" isn't a sign. Most common clinical signs of hypoglycemia are drowsiness, shivering, collapsing, disorientation, seizures, listlessness, depression, muscle weakness and tremors, of course they don't have to display all signs, but try giving food first, and remember puppies sleep a lot. Yes, you can give bullysticks when they are young. They are teething and love to chew, they should always have something appropriate to chew on, it's much easier to teach them not to bite and chew if you can give them an adequate substitute.
