Hi Everyone,
This is my first post so am not sure I am doing it right but here goes.
Been reading and learning for a few months now. Thank you all.
Now my first question is this. Is there anyone in this extensive forum who has bought a puppy from Tom Murphy in New York, just outside of Buffalo?
If so what do you think ? I have a puppy from him and I am not totally convinced he is full yorkie like he said he is.
Doesn't matter to me if he is or not, cause I wouldn't trade him for anything,he is a spoiled little monster and we love him to pieces.
More questions later
Thanks

Welcome to YT! I think you have a cutie - is a bit outside of yorkie standard? Perhaps he is just what some members lovingly call a tea pot

Hi, welcome to YorkieTalk, he looks all Yorkie to me, and I love that picture of him that looks like he's standing on a branch. Is he standing on the branch? Maybe he's part cat.

He looks so much like a yorkie. it must be a yorkie, Unless, he was mixed with a silky. I would do the dna test. I was told they are affordable.

dardoninc · 08-04-2008, 05:09 AM

thanks for the replys.
Someone said he looked big, well he is bigger than some here but he is 10 months old and weighs about 8.5 Lbs. I guess his pictures make him look bigger.
And yes he is standing on a tree branch, very close to the ground, no chance of injuries from falling LOL. He loves the apple trees and is always trying to get in them.
His coat and coloring is what has me thinking he might be mixed but after reading here there are certainly many coats and colors, but he has had white hair all along his back and top of his legs, and his hair has never really grown much. He has only had the hair cut above his eyes and a little off the ears. Is this something that will change as he gets older?
