My little girl was almost 10 weeks old when I got her. They learn a lot from their mothers in that short period of time and the breeder is repsonible for getting their shots and vacinations, things like that.
I do know of people who have gotten their yorkies that young and do fine, just be careful and watch out for her and make sure she gets enough to eat, you don't want her going into a hpyglycemic attack. You sound like you are a great mommy and are really concerned for what is best for her so I am sure she will be fine! :)
Were you able to see her parents when you got her? I bet they were beautiful considering how cute she is!! :) :)
Best of luck to you and your baby!! :) :) :) :) | actually yes, i did see her parents. they were beautiful. her mother was a show dog and her father was a feisty lil punk[just like her]..i know much about hypoglycemia and i am watching that carefully, considering how small she is. the breeder told me herself specifically to give her 3-4 drops of honey a day, along with a drop of nutri-cal, since she is so small. i respect the breeder a lot. she is a kind lady who puts a lot of love and care into raising the pups. bebhinn likes to do a certain thing, [note, i wear pretty much nothing but hoodies] she crawls inside of my hoodie and she goes inside of my hood to the back of my neck and she sleeps there, in my hood..on the back of my neck. shes actually doing it right now. i know its mighty warm back there and i have long hair, so she goes right under there and snuggles up. shes sucha good girl!
thanks much for caring, yall guys have helped me soo much! if i hadent joined this site, i would've known nothing really about raising a good pooch. and already, she is so obedient! all because of yall...yall are such good mommies yall selfs, and im glad im wise enough to sit back and listen when all i want to do is talk talk talk:p thanks so much ladies, without yall, i wouldnt know all i know now. thanks to yall, she will be raised to be a fiinnnee lil missus who makes the rest of my families dogs feel shame for being the way they are:we're #1: yorkie owners unite!
