In dogs that aren't sensitive to anesthesia, combine away. For Yorkies, who tend to be small, it's best to limit their time under anesthesia, giving their livers less to process at a time. (This was stated in a Yorkie owners handbook.)

Compare to drinking alcohol. Is it easier on your body to drink 1 bottle of wine at one sitting, or to drink half a bottle now, and the other half in a month? Your body will handle the smaller amount better than a large amount all at once.
