| I have a yorkie with seizures... very scary... we now have her on medicine and haven't had one since... I felt helpless when they first started... googled for information and went to several doctors until we got her under control...

| I don't think they are more common then other breeds, but if your baby has had one take to vet asap. There are lots of reasons for seizures

| Welcome to YT. I have had 5 yorkies and they never had a seizure. In my time here on YT I have NOT read that seizures are COMMON to this breed. If your baby no matter what age it is, has a seizure get that pup to the vet right away.
