Labs have hips, Cockers have eyes and skin- every dog has their issues and even if you DO get from a reputable breeder- they still may have some issues- Layla came from a great breeder and she has pancreatitis- nothing to do with breeding- just luck of the draw. Do your research and buy from good breeder who does genetic testing. |
The Yorkie wouldn't have gotten a uterine infection if she would've been spayed. The same goes for all other breeds. If their teeth are brushed and they have dentals when needed, most won't have major issues. Yorkies do have tons of teeth issues but you just have to keep up with dentistry.
