I don't think dry black gunk is a typical Yorkie feature. Do you get her groomed? Some groomers will pull the hairs from their ear canals (Yorkies as a breed tend to have quite a bit), which helps their chances of avoiding ear infections. You can also buy ear cleaners, which is nice to have around. Keep cotton balls in their ears or pinch ears shut while bathing as well to keep excess moisture out. I would say that is either mites or an ear infection, but it wouldn't be a bad idea to go to the veterinarian and get it checked out. Good luck!
