All were very healthy as young pups, health issues started as they got older 9 and 10 y/o. I really do not think the color of a yorkie indicates health issues,but that's just MO. I am by no means a yorkie expert, just what I have experienced in owning 4 yorkies that I raised from 8 weeks old. | I agree. I was not trying to suggest that a darker color would indicate health problems. I meant that when looking for a yorkie it is important to also consider health and personality.
