I do not think the breeder has any responsiblity to you in this matter, except moral support. The person you bought the Yorkie from bears the monitary responsibility. If I sell my house and the buyer resells it..am I responsible to the new buyer for any defects..? I do not think the law will side with you, but I have been wrong before..the person who bought from the breeder needs to contact her.
I know you are upset and concerend for your dog..but a defect that appears 3 times in 26 yrs is not consider a serious problem.. it is nothing to ignore of course..I know high volume show/hobby breeders who get 3 shunts a year and see nothing wrong in continuing to breed the lines.
