|  yorkie snores... not breathing while sleeping? Does anyone know if it's possible for a yorkie to have sleep apnea? my little girl snores when she sleeps... but it's almost seems as if she's not taking consistent breaths while sleeping... anyone know anything about this? or any suggestions? |

| Hi and Welcome to YT! I'm not sure... best thing would be to get a video of her sleeping and show it to your vet.

| I am sure it is possible. I know that many of the smushed face breeds have issues with breathing and it is worse when they sleep. The bulldogs and all....pardon me..the name for them is not coming atm. Also they are heavier. I would think that a pup that is overweight would be more inclined. I would definitely have the vet look into this.
