This isn't my opinion it is a fact that my girl is very tiny and I have never had any health problems with her. I have however had health problems with my larger non-yorkie furbabies. There are health problems whether your yorkie is small or large it all depends on genetics, the environment he/she was raised in and what breeder you get the dog from. A lot of things to be careful with about in the small ones are just common sense things: Watch where you walk and make sure they eat 3-4 times a day. My vet once told me that hypoglycemia is oftentimes genetic and if the dog is going to get it, it's going to get it no matter what you do because some have more of a predisposition to this condition than others.
