hi ,welcome to yt

1) yorkies start losing their puppy teeth @ 4 to 5 months old but sometimes will retain some so it is good to wait till they are 7 to 9 months to be nuetered so the retained teeth can be removed at the same time...

2) most yorkies are full grown around 1 year of age but some can take longer..

3) i think @ 1 year of age it is safe to feed 2 meals a day unless you have a real tiny then you would have to feed more frequent meals to prevent hypoglycemia
