A yorkie can have a bath when they are about 6 weeks old, but I would think 8 weeks would be better. The mom will be taking care of them up until that point in time. Be sure they stay warm and to blow dry them on low heat.

Well the Yorkshire terrier should have the 1st bath around 6-8 weeks.They should start to smell bad before that because the stay in the house and the mom should take care of them before 6-8 weeks.Make sure you wash the soap out because it will be VERY itchy!
