I shouldn't even mention this because I know a lot of people will take offense
--- but - really, it's just a question.
BUT - Two vets in a room with at my last visit said (in agreement) that often very small Yorkies are not sharp, intelligent little guys like their larger Yorkie mates are. One vet said that sometimes their eyes are just not sharp and they just aren't as alert as they should be.
My daughter had a small Yorkie visit her place of work today. She said it was 7 years old and weighed 1 1/2 pounds. She asked the owner if it was healthy and he said it was very healthy. But, she told me that it didn't look right to her. She said it eyes were bugged out and its tongue was hanging out and it shook a lot. She thought something was wrong with it and that it "looked funny."
To your knowledge, has this every been an issue with very tiny Yorkies?
