As several of us have tried to point out, good breeders breed healthy dogs, period.
I dont believe tinies are unhealthier either. I do believe they are more prone to injury than a larger yorkie. I know if i said it to someone considering getting a tiny that it wouldnt be out of Jealousy as Jacksons mom has said. If I wanted a tiny I could have one right now as we have the funds to purchase one. I am sure that is the same of most YTers. I think she has made some very insulting comments about YTers.
