and also said shes put on half a kilo in weight since her spay and said she needs to be put on a diet?!?!

im no professional but Millie is far from fat or heavy, infact shes tiny and extremely lean, she goes on super long walks and gets plenty of exercise everyday and hardly eats anything. the only real treats we give her are a tiny sunday roast dinner which is mostly vegetables!

i dont get it!

hopefully all these drugs will stop her accidents but im abit unsure about this weight issue, weve not been feeding her any more than we always have and she hasnt got a pot belly or anything :S

I would find another Vet IMHO. If you can, try to find one that breeders go to and/or is familiar with Yorkies. I have had more than one client that had trouble and seemed to not get good diagnosis from their Vet, called me I referred them to someone in their area who is knowledgable. More and more nowadays I find a high level of incompetency in Vets.
