I don't have a lot of the answers since I am a fairly new yorkie owner myself, but what I wish I knew at the beginning was to take my puppy's stool to get tested by the vet. I found out my pup has giardia after almost a month of having her.
I use a wire crate so she can see her surroundings, but put a blanket over when she's sleeping or when it's colder. Put lots of cushiony stuff in there like blankets and toys.
Also have a tube of Nutri-Cal, I found that very helpful since yorkies are prone to hypoglycemia. You'll know if she has hypoglycemia if u look at her gums and they are white. It is suppose to be a nice pink color. Also, you can give it to your pup if they seem off on their eating schedule or looks very weak, but don't give it excessively. It is a supplement, not a replacement for food or anything.
This is my personal experience from owning a yorkie, but again, I am fairly new to all this as well. Hope this helps! |
