I personally thing this thread is wrought with misinformation...rather; I think its more your opinion, mostly your opinion. Not all standard dogs are wrought with the things you say...usually these things occur in poorly bred dogs. I have a friend who has 5 very small pup chis, poodle and maltese...I have friends with Yorkies that have never had a problem. It is because of people who breed without healthtesting and byb's , puppymills that multiple lines show are "infected" with these abnormalities. A larger Yorkie or a tiny Yorkie it well bred lines can and do happen, but are rearer than what your alluding too.

Additionally, I have a smaller Yorkie from a well bred line, this dog is healthier than my 7 and now 12lb. Yorkies, he is not only healthy but he is sturdy and sound...so I fail to see the conclusion you have come to.
