But a larger yorkie could still have to go as much as a smaller yorkie depending on there liquid intake and so on. I swear Sammy pees all the time but he is healthy and nothing is wrong with him and he is 17 pounds. Both can get hurt jumping off of a couch I know this for a fact because Callie jumped off the couch was limping and we had to go to the ER vet at 3am, then the regular vet the next day and then the orthopedic surgeon after that. Both can fit into small places that can be dangerous, Callie someone found away to get into my headboard and get wrapped up in cords and stuck. Both can get stepped on Callie and Sammy have many times so we had to change how we walk around and make sure we could hear there tags. Callie gets sick is she doesn't eat and has had hypoglycemia issues. Callie has CT and LP both issues that happen in all size yorkies. She maybe 17 pounds but when she is sick her weight drops fast and she goes down hill fast as will any yorkie. Sorry not seeing to many differences except Callie can't be thrown in a carrier and sneaked into places
