| Possible Yorkie Mix Hello all My yorkie Delilah is now 6 months old and she really does not look like my other Yorkie. She is tiny (about 2 lbs) and has very LONG legs - about 7 inches. I know the breeder I got her from does breed Papillons too. When I do a search for pics of a mix breed like this, I found a pic that looks just like mine. She also looks a lot like a Chihuahua mix too. The breeder told me about a Yorkie "Deer" or Yorkie "Fawn" and I can not find any information on that. I am posting 2 pictures and if you all can give me your thoughts, I would greatly appreciate it. |

| Can you make the pictures larger? They are so small, it's hard to tell. |

| Did you shave her legs that short or is that how her hair has grown?

| I think she may be a mix. There is a chance she is a red leg yorkie because the pictures I have seen of them the leg hair is short. But with the length of the legs and that I think she is a mix but I could be wrong. She has an adorable yorkie face

| Hi and welcome! Your little girl looks very similar to mine! My has larger ears though and I've been told she may be mixed with poodle although I don't see it, she may be mixed with something else. Have you shaved her at all? I just got my baby and I know that they cut her hair real short, she also has long legs! |

| She could just be very poorly bred. There are a lot of Yorkies out there who don't look much like Yorkies because of all the backyard breeders. |
