Oh wow ! What a bad scare and I'm so glad she's ok !!

While I didn't look for a tiny yorkie ....no one can convince me that they aren't more fragile. I see people say how tough they are - but to be honest -any animal that small is bound to be more fragile than their larger counterparts. I remember when I started my search for a yorkie... I had gone to my vet first hoping he could steer me to a breeder and his only warning to me was 'be very careful of the extra small yorkies'....

JiggityJig....thanks for posting this - I agree with you that many people who want tinies don't fully comprehend the special care involved to keep them safe and healthy. I don't blame people for wanting one - but I sure do blame those so called 'breeders' intentionally breeding for tiny and charging outrageous prices. The ethical breeders out there would never put a tiny female thru a pregnancy.
