My oldest yorkie is 6 years old and none of them have been sick. Though I had one break his leg a few years ago from falling off the couch but with surgery it was an easy fix. They are very healthy and run around still playing like puppies.
I think Nancy has a very good point. Getting one from a good breeder can make a big difference. I carefully picked mine out and so far no health problems and hopefully it will stay that way. |
