| Yorkie in pet store (photo) I went to the pet store and wanted an estimate weight of the Yorkie that was there. The clerk said he was about 6 or 7 lbs at 7months. Do you think she was accurate judging from the photo? the other photo was deleted accidently. ps no intentions of getting him, just was curious Last edited by MissNicole; 03-27-2005 at 02:45 AM.

| It looks like it could be about 6 or 7 pounds to me. I've never seen pet stores selling pups that old. Except for places like petco or petsmart shelter dogs.

| pup Bless his heart..I hope he finds a good home. Looks like a long-haired Doberman to me..but I realize Dobie do not come in a long-haired variety. On the scale I bet he is more like 10 pounds. |

Really, it's your decision, but if you REALLY want to stop pet stores from selling dogs, don't buy a dog from them... Stay away from the pet store. Don't go back, then you won't be tempted. As horrible as it is for that puppy, the pet store needs to realize that selling dogs is not ok | |
