As far as red flags go, there is lots and lots to read in the YT library. If you don't know how to get around yet, just say the word and we can link those threads to your thread so you can read them. The most important rule is BUY YOUR BREEDER FIRST. All puppies are cute and can steal your heart in an instant, which is why we urge new yorkie parents to look at breeders first. They need to be someone who is knowledgeable about the breed, their lines, can tell you what testing was done on the breeding pair, and they will also be your puppy support system from the moment you take your pup home, until the day your pup takes his/her last breadth. |
LP is one disease that can plague this breed. There is also Hip Dysplasia, but the dreaded is Liver Shunt.
The other thing that one needs to ask oneself before obtaining a dog, do you have the committment/tenacity/devotion/patience it takes to train one of these yorkies. If you are missing one of these don't even consider any pup.
