Other than the potential harm due to being small (ie, stepped, dropped etc), smaller yorkies can be just as healthy as any other yorkie. In fact, my 2 small ones (3.5-4lbs) are WAY healthier than my larger one (8.5 lbs). Only one of my small ones has an issue, and that's allergies. My larger one has LP (had knee surgery), allergies, Cushings, Hypothyroid, chronic skin infections.
