Off the top of my head and I am sure there are other things that could be added to this list. Most of these things that we see more often than in other breeds.

Dentals usually needed yearly - I cannot tell you how many come to me never having had one Main reason: money .. people should be told when they purchase/adopt a yorkie about the need for this and the cost

luxating patellas

cruciate ligament tears

pancreatitis

collapsing trachea

IBD

LCP

HGE

allergies

lymphangectasia

GME

PDA

PRA

They also are not pups that children should be carrying around or rough housing with....the accidents I have seen from them being dropped is very troubling.

My vet one day was joking with me about how did I pick this breed?
