YorkieTalk Newbie! | Is this a Yorkie, and what type is it? Hi! I am new to this forum and not currently a Yorkie owner, but I would like to get one in the near future. They are adorable. I found this photo and think he is a Yorkie with a short haircut. I am wondering if anyone can help me identify it and give me any information. I know there are different types but I am very uninformed which is why I joined this site. Here he is |

| OMG, that is the most adorable puppy I have ever seen. I would say this is NOT a yorkie as he does not have a yorkie face or coloring, I will guess it is a mix pup, and what it may be mixed with I am clueless, but that is one cute lil baby. Google Yorkshire terriers, there will be tons of pictures that show what a pure bred yorkie looks like, from puppy to adult. Read about their requirements, personality etc. to make sure a yorkie is the best breed for you.

YorkieTalk Newbie! | I know, isn't he the cutest thing, I love him. So if he is a Yorkie mix I may never get one like him I was hoping he was a Yorkie with a different haircut. Thank you for your help, and I will continue to search! |

| I'm pretty sure that's not a full yorkie and even if some how it was it would be breed poorly. There really are not different kinds of Yorkies. I encourage you to look for a reputable breeder if you want a yorkie.

| Looks like a cute Yorkie w/ half flopped ears... When you say 'type', what does that mean? Yorkies or mix you mean?

YorkieTalk Newbie! | Thank you all for your help! I thought that there were different 'types' of Yorkies, like a toy or a teacup, and then Yorkies that are bigger, about 7 lbs. Also, as someone else on this post said, possibly a Pomeranian/Yorkie mix. I'm trying to learn what I can about them, and I did contact a couple of breeders in my area who are waiting for a litter. Thank you for your comments |

I have a boy who many people ask me what he's mixed with because he's so different than the mental schema that people have of what a yorkie looks like. People a bit more familiar with breeding and genetics tell me he's a throwback, and he may very well be considering how different he is than his parents and littermates as well as the dogs in his pedigree. I guess the point I'm making is that there isn't one type of yorkie face or colouring. | |

| Hi, I have not been on this forum for ages, but I'm here today! I sometimes warn people that if a breeder is putting a great deal of emphasis on how super tiny the pups are, then the breeder might be more concerned with the size than the health of the pups. Good luck. That is one cute puppy in the photo! |

| I think it's a mix. But coloring alone doesn't make a yorkie. In rare cases, some just have the gold color. I had a silky that was all goldish. |
