no They shed a little, but never a lot.

Yorkies do not have an undercoat, so they will lose hair about as much as a human. Shedding can be reduced by grooming/brushing the yorkie regularly.i dont really like them.
Yes, but not as much as a lot of other breeds. The hairs go through a growing phase, then a rest, then eventually fall out,just like our hairs do. But not a lot fall out at the same time.

Are Yorkies bad for kids with asthma?

Not just Yorkies, all dogs shed, so if your child is allergic to dogs then keep him away from ALL dogs. Not just Yorkies, even if they tend to shed a lot too. It all depends on the individual. My children and I have asthma and our Yorkie doesn't bother us at all. I do bathe him every couple days as well as take him to the groomer every other month, just to keep all of our allergies in check (even his!)


When can you bathe a yorkie?

Yorkies don't shed because they have similar fur to human hair. So you can wash a yorkie as much times as your hair ;)
