Eight weeks is way too young to leave her mother. Yorkies should be 12 weeks old before going to their new home. The risk of hypoglycemia is very high in a puppy this age.

Loose stools and vomiting are also very dangerous in a puppy this young as she can dehydrate very quickly. Dehydration causes an electrolyte imbalance which can cause cardiac arrest. Giardia and Parvo can cause diarrhea and vomiting.

This puppy needs to be seen by a vet ASAP!
