It wouldn't hurt to have her evaluated by an internal medicine specialist if you want the very best care available.

Yorkies are very prone to liver problems. This usually manifests as a portosystemic shunt or microvascular dysplasia when they are young. It is still theoretcially possible that that is what is going on here though. Has she been bile acids tested?

The liver does seem to encounter problems as pups age though. there is really a whole list of things that it could be. Denosyl and Marin are good. Lactulose can be added if she is having neurological symptoms.
