Gaining weigh is a myth. If done before the first heat it prevents mammary cancer. My mom grew up with a dog who got in infection in her uterus and ending up it was so bad she had to be put to sleep. It's also not true that it changes there personality. People think this because they get a puppy and get it fixed when it is still coming into it's personality. As long as your puppy is over three pounds and you get the pre surgery blood work it should be fine. Most yorkies do not lose all of there baby teeth and end up getting them pulled at the same time they get fixed because leaving them can cause food to get stuck between double teeth and rot the tooth as well as mess up the alignment of there teeth so more then likely she will need to go under anesthesia anyway. There is nothing really scary about anesthesia when the right protocol is taken and the pre surgery blood work is done.
