I've met more than one YT member who has a yorkie who had a hypoglocemic attack after they were 6 months of age and people who have yorkies who developed bladder crystals from lack of water. I don't know about you, but I'm just not willing to take that chance. Yorkies are unlike any breed and most vets are used to dealing with dogs "in general," and not specifically yorkies. Sure, it may be fine for most breeds, but I would not take that chance with an itty bitty yorkie. That's JMO.
