I have noticed in the winter it bothers him more, but he is never in pain.

I would start to get her weight down, can you do light exercising with her? Don't let her gain anymore weight. I would go see you Ortho and see what he says.. make sure he is highly recommended, and experienced in smaller breeds.

Try to let her take it easy, make her rest as much as you can. ((HUGS)) I know how stressful it is, but thankfully it can be fixed.

Perfectly said...try the "diet" food of the brand your currently using often called Weight Maintenance...Many Yorkies have this, weight or no weight problem its just that when they do have it, Weight management is important.

Don't stress too much, wait for the Orthos opinion and keep her relaxed and resting! Good Luck and hang in there it will be ok...it really will be
