I have three really small yorkies. They don't have any health problems They are all around 3 pounds full grown. The only problem small dogs encounter that big dogs don't really face is hypoglycemia. But if she is 6 months old and never had a problem with it as a young pup she wont have problems in the future with it. Has she been checked for any congenital health problems. if she is in the clear with that. The only thing you really need to be worried and careful about is make sure she doesnt fall from somewhere high or slam her in a door. Things like that. little dogs have less health problems than big dogs and they live longer as well.
