Are you certain she was diagnosed with hip dysplasia or was it legg perthes disease. Yorkies suffer from the later...it's a degenerative disease of the hip joint. The bone disintegrates and the leg isn't held in place. It has to be surgically repaired. So yes...she needs to see the vet or an orthopedic specialist.
