| Wow...several years ago I had a precious Yorkie that was about 12-14lbs. I thought she was huge. Now I think she must have just been a little larger that normal. She had the best personality and was great for long walks. I really miss her...now I have a tiny bundle of energy that is 1.27lbs. (only 5 months old) What a difference in size.... |

| A couple of weeks ago I was at the vet, an elderly man was there with a wee lil yorkie. Because Cody wanted to take on the entire waiting room of dogs he called a bit of attention to us. The tech took the wee one to the back for it’s shot, the elderly man asked me what breed Cody was OMG, Cody is ONLY 12Lbs, he should have seen my gorgeous 17Lb girl, boy would I LOVE to borrow Harvey lol. I cannot believe ppl have never seen a yorkie over 5 Lbs. BLOOD was dripping from my mouth from biting my tongue not to him a snarky reply as I sweetly replied he’s a 12 Lb yorkie.

| Harvey is a true one off , I've written to the kennel club to confirm all his line were Yorkies . I'm glad he's so large though at 6ft 2 and 16 and half stone I'm not small and he suits me lol |

| I should have posted here! It looks like I'm not the only one wanting to see teapot pics I posted just that under a new thread. I am also curious to find out if a larger percentage of them have the floppy ears This is my 5 month, 10 lb plus, floppy eared teapot, Dubby. |

YT 500 Club Member | Yorkies were breed a lot bigger way back in the day. They are hunters and needed size to capture their pray. As time went on the Royal people of England wanted more of a fu fu dog, lap dog. So as breeding went on they would breed the runts of each litter. Didn't take too long to decrease their size. I saw a picture of my breeders great grandfather with 2 Yorkies that weighed 20lbs. They were gorgeous! Also, the larger Yorkies back then seemed to be a lot healthier.

| OMGoodness your baby is just adorable. At 5 months old and 10 lbs lol, baby is gonna be a BIG BEAUTIFUL pup. I had one 9 lb, and two at 13 lbs with floppy ears my 17 lb girl had HUGE beautiful straight ears, my 12 Lb adopted boy has BIG beautiful ears, I don't think size matters when it comes to floppy or straight ears. Have you tried taping his / her ears to get them to stand up.
