Congratulations on your first baby! As you have never owned a dog before, and you now have a Yorkie that is very tiny, you need to immediately get reference books to help you through this! I always suggest "Yorkies for Dummies" which is available at Petco as well as Amazon.com....You must keep that baby warm and you must be able to recognize hypoglycemia if you are faced with it. Immediately have a tube of Nutra-Cal on hand, to give the baby if her blood sugar drops....you put a 1/2 inch dab on your little finger and put it in her mouth, on the roof of her mouth, if she staggers, or looks drunk, or gets very listless....is she eating well? She must get enough food...and you have to be certain that she is...just put down measured amounts of food, so you can see that she is eating. Get that book immediately and start reading so you know exactly what you are dealing with when you have a tiny Yorkie baby.
