All of my Yorkies have had health problems! I have had 4 and Cali has been the sickest and the smallest. part of it might be because she is so small I don't take chances and take her in for everything. My Gracie died at 6 1/2 from collapsed trachea. Other two lived to almost 13 but had mnor illnesses. My pet shop Pom my husband got has been the healthiest, but I have a theory on that, only the strong survive the puppy mills and she was one of the lucky ones and the pet store has a great reputation. I know 8 other dogs some in my family and all have been healthy. I just plan on having resources avaialable for vet bills when ever I get a dog. I will never not have a Yorkie and I know so much more now from being on YT that I will hopefully get my next one from a great Breeder. |
