| Different Sized Yorkies I know it is on here somewhere but I can't find it. I recently bred my yorkie female and all the pups are diff. like color. I know they are all full blooded. But now one of the owners is saying her vet said he isn't - because he is tall. Iknow there are plenty of bigger yorkies on here - please help me. They are just like people as far as genetics and such. Any suggestions will be great! I used a great breeder, well known. Beautiful Yorkies.. My mother has the grandfather and he is a full blooded yorkie also, and he is tall ya know the 9-11lb yorkie size, sure he isn't a "tea cup" as some say but he is still a yorkie right? My female is 5-6lbs and the male was the same maybe a lil smaller. So what happened. She was only with one male not two (her vet said he could be from a different litter ) ???? That isnt' the case....attached are the pics of him. He looks yorkie to me... what about yall? the pics didn't turn out right so I will try them again. he IS NOT the first pic iwht the guy...

| The Doggie in Questio n HI. My Ralphie is the doggie we are talking about. I have attached some pictures of him and one of his mother and grandfather from "Ilovemyabbie". He is about 5 months old now an was 9 lbs at last weight. He is quite tall and long , and I have never seen and other yorkie that looked like him except his grandfather. The fact that he is so different from most yorkies i see and that my vet and groomer have both advised me against breeding him because they do not believe he is 100% yorkie have worried me so my breeder and I have been discussing it this morning and if there is any possibility that he isnt pure. Your comments and opinions are welcome ....

| Wow he is a big boy. Wyatt is about 10 lbs at 10 months and I thought he was a big boy. He looks all yorkie to me. I don't think however that I would breed him. I was at the dog park one day and a lady there had a 20lb+ yorkie. He was most definitely the biggest one that I had ever seen. He is absolutely adorable.

| Well the breeding is up to the owner. but some people love the big ones and that is what they are looking for. there are plenty of bigger yorkies on here that can show you they can be full blooded and big.

| I love big yorkies too I have one but dont think they should be bred. Yorkie breeders should try to follow the standard. Thats what separates the good breeders from the bad ones.

| "full blooded" doesnt always mean they are going to be a carbon copied yorkie. his parents may have had a recessive gene for being taller, however, that gene may not have shown up in the previous few generations. so you cant always tell by the parents. but he does look like a yorkie though. |

| He looks like a yorkie to me just oversized and should have never been bred. My Chachi is 10 lbs and MY groomer says hes a silky but he is just an over sized yorkie

| Tall or not he sure looks Yorkie to me He also is very adorable there is something to be said for a bigger yorkie. What matters is that he is loved and in a loving home. I would not breed him however because that would quite possibly stray from the standard to far. But he sure is cute |

| Maybe I shouldn't of bred him, but The yorkie on the left ( looking at the pic) is his child and she is 5-6 lbs. Themama of the lil one in question and she is perfect to me... I would not redo anything... I am glad you all think he is a yorkie. I am sorta upset - worried really - cause I have always thought they were - no question till now..

| Relax.....I also have a larger Yorkie. He's 18 months old and weighs 9.5 lbs. He's tall, long, and rubs between my calves like a cat. He wiggles that long body like no regular-sized Yorkie could ever do. I also have a female who's five years old and weighs 6 lbs. They are both darling, totally different in personalities as well as size. ALL Yorkies are wonderful! |
