I agree with earlier posters who advise not to worry too much about reverse sneezing. Oliver Wendell Bones has done this for years -- and he's a hale and hearty age 14 (next month).
One thing my vet has advised, for general Yorkie health maintenance, is a harness rather than a collar. This takes the pressure off his trachea during walks, when he tends to pull as Yorkies will do!
My silver guy looks great in his jaunty red harness and matching leash.
The worst thing about reverse sneezing is public displays, when passers-by draw back in horror and then gaze at me accusingly...
I say: just do what you can for your sneezer, don't worry too much about it, and focus on all those other great Yorkie traits!
