The only thing that i can think of is that your daughter's Yorkie is stressed out. She was/is in a new invironment for a while and it was change.
When I first got suzi she was always opening her mouth and yawning too.

OK, we saw the new vet yesterday and he did complete blood work and it all came back normal...he did find that she had inflamed tonsils and a runny nose, but before we left, she did start her "fly-snapping" thing and he called in another vet that was in the office and they seemed to think that it was mild epeliptic seizures. They gave her a shot of antibiotics and a shot of valium (which did not faze her yesterday) and some phenobartibatol (which I decided not to give after more research) and a recheck appointment for Friday. THEN, we woke up this morning and that dog is completely back to normal...NOTHING if the scary behavior of the last three days. It is crazy, I think that it was a combination of several factors...my daughter has started to work and she is left here in a different house, then when she does go home, it is to a new house...they sprayed for mosquitoes in our town on Saturday and Sunday morning, she licked mosquito repellent off of my husband that morning and I gave her Iverhart-Max last Wednesday...plus we feed her Wellness 5 small bites, but I had gived her some Blue Buffalo Venison wet food mixed in. Yesterday, I threw that away and mixed Merricks Trout Dinner with it. Anyway, I am not saying that we are out of the woods and whatever it was will not come back, but for now she shows NO signs of the "fly-biting" symptoms that she has had continously since Sunday at all. We are all very hopeful that whatever it was is over and all is back to [U]normal!! It was so scary and we were so worried. Please everyone, keep Mailee in your prayers for us that this is history! I appreciate the concern of everyone on this board...Thank you for you thoughts!!
