I have to agree here. And that is what these ppl count on. you come by, you see the cute pups, you either a) ignore the conditions or b) say to yourself I want to "save" them from thesee conditions.
Look up the various tests a Yorkie should have. Do bats at 16wks and again at 6months old. Hopefully you will have dodged the bullet. Liver Shunt is not rare in this breed. I'm sorry I don't have any hard stats on that but maybe anywhere from 10-30 percent of Yorkies are afflicted.
I hope the best of health and loving for your and your new pup
