He xrayed her also...I mentioned the enlarged heart , at first he said he did not see it so he brought up the xray so we could both look and said that one side of her heart appears to be enlarged.
But you see this was even difficult for him to see. And also GiGi is now back track with her diet and happly on her way to her 15th and hopefully not her last year and doing great.
I would start with your babies breeder and go.from there. GiGi was never on any meds for her heart and is not now.
Hope this helped you...keep us updated

Your breeder is incorrect. All yorkies do not have enlarged hearts.
