Hi
We are new to Yorkies as well. We got Toby from a rescue centre about 5 weeks ago. He was sneezing so much we took him to the Vet and they put him on powder to dry up the mucus and antibiotics. It did clear up most of it but we also found that he sneezed more if he had been in my daughter's room which is very dusty and smoky (shes a typical teenager).
Now he does what we have learnt to know as 'Hurfing'! It's a backward sneeze and cough, usually caused when the trachea goes into spasm (apparently very common for Yorkies), which happens when her gets excited or barks too much.
