The most important things I've learned...
1.) Set money aside for vet care, schedule regular checkups and vaccinations and establish a good relationship with your vet!
2.) If your yorkie gets loose and is heading for the street, run AWAY from him/her!! Run AWAY! They will follow thinking it's a game and you could save his/her life! Microchip!! If someone picks up your pet, it's the ONLY way to prove ownership.
3.) Brush (teeth and coat) every single day without fail and ONLY bathe them every couple of weeks. More often will dry out the skin.
