Smile Lighter color or darker color yorkies?

What's your preference? I prefer the darker in color around the face, they look like little teddy bears. I had a friend who lives in Georgia looking for a yorkie, so I gave her some websites. They had cute light and dark color ones. I found and she was being really picky as she should but, every yorkie with what she thought were big ears, was called a devil dog. Every light color yorkie was considered old looking to her. I love them all!

Haha, I laughed to when she said it. She also said if the yorkie had a long nose, she didn't want it. She said she would take it back to the breeder or sell it if the nose grew long. She thinks it's a mixed breed if the nose is long. I was on cracking up when she said it, it made me start looking at all the characteristics of the photo's of yorkies. LOL!

Dan & I are partial to the darker Yorkies with the shorter muzzle but the lighter Yorkies are just as beautiful as well as the Biewers and the longer muzzled pals.

Yorkies Rule... PERIOD!

Ok, thanks, that's the word I was looking for, '"muzzle". The shorter muzzle and the darker face makes them look like little teddy bears.
And yes, yorkies do rule!

Well, I don't know what Ms Abigail is going to end up doing. Her saddle area is still quite black - turning - blue; and there's quite a bit of white on her head (as you can see) that seems to be turning more light gold since the avatar pix. I, personally, prefer the darker colors.

I like really dark colors. I like black and tan although it is out of standard. I even like the rich gold with some black intermingled on the face. I am also a fan of the parties and biewers. Ah! guess I am equals opportunity kinda person but my preference is black and tan. If I had a show pup I would definitely go for the blue and gold instead.

I like the darker colors best too -- I am really hoping mine go to a dark steel blue. Still puppy coats for now.

I used to think that I favored the lighter colored yorkies. But after owning both the darker and lighter color yorkies, I find that I prefer the dark ones. I love all the colors and it wouldn't stop me from choosing a pup because of the color but I do favor the black and gold ones.

Here is a picture of my two. I don't think you can tell from the picture but Scampers (left) is black and gold and Destiny (right) is blue and tan. Of course the black on Scampers head will go away once I cut his hair, it will be all gold, I am just waiting for it to get a little longer and then I will cut it.


Is your friend looking for a yorkie puppy or an adult yorkie??

When I got my baby he was one of those very dark puppies... hubby was hoping he'd stay dark but he started growing his puppy fur out very early. Right now, at 6 months, he is mostly silver and tan around the face and paws... But I see dark grey roots in some places where the lightest hair is. So he'll change, I'm sure. And I'm very curious what he'll end up looking up exactly. Anyways, funny but my preference is whatever Pepper looks like...

My favorite color in a Yorkie is platinum blonde. I have 6 yorkies and my rescue is a blond female. You can see her picture on the yTNR website. Look under happy endings. She is the 3rd one listed her name is Robin.
