BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | Are Yorkies really that rare? We went camping over the weekend and I could not believe all the attention I got taking the girls on a walk, we had people stopping us left and right! I felt like a celeb! LOL I even had people walk right up to are lot and just start talking to me. Most would say " Ohh I want a Yorkie so bad" I don't know, I guess Yorkies are that rare? Are they rare in your area? |

| I know what you mean. I cant go anywhere without getting all kinds of attention. I have to admit, before I bought my first yorkie a couple years ago, I dont believe I ever laid eyes on one in person so maybe there are a little rarer than most dogs or maybe it is just they are so expensive that not everyone can afford them for pets so you dont see them alot. |

| I think it depends on where you live. In Southern California I see quite a few.

| Not rare, just sought after. That's why they are the #2 breed in the country. People just little dogs.

| I know there are a few in our town. My friend has two and I know of a couple of others, but never see them out anywhere. Guess they're kind of rare here too.

| They must be rare here because when we go for walks people actually ask me what kind of dogs they are. I thought everyone knew what a Yorkie was |

| It's a Yorkie thing I can't go anywhere without someone wanting to oooh and ahhh over my girls. It's nice, but sometimes annoying

| I don't know if they're rare, but I know people always stop us to look at Miko and Emma(my maltese). And I do the same. Even when we're not with our furbabies, if I see someone with a yorkie, I always stop to talk to them and admire their beautiful little babies. People, including myself, love dogs especially little ones like yorkies or maltese
