I don't know if this is a yorkie thing or if its something else. So, is it common for Yorkies skin to act up and breath be horrible? Any suggestions?  |
Have you checked his teeth and gums? Foul breath can be a sign of gum disease or tooth decay.
Maybe you can try for the coat a waterless shampoo in between baths to see if that helps out.
