show hopeful going down the drain!! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

cutiepieyorkies · 12-29-2007, 03:26 PM

this is dancer

I was really hoping to show her but she is just 3.5 pound's at 6 months

is there a small chance she will have a growth spurt?

her mom was 6 and dad was 5.5 I dont get it my heart is breaking

I have no idea about showing, but she sure is beautiful. How big does she need to be to show? 4lbs? Can she still compete in puppy classes? As you can probably tell, I know nothing about showing, but I appreciate those of you who do.

I hope that she has a growth spurt so that you can show her. She is so beautiful that she would win hands down. I love her coat!

a2luckygirl · 12-29-2007, 04:04 PM

that is one beautiful girl!

littlewhip · 12-29-2007, 04:07 PM

Oh My she is so pretty

I dont know anything about showing, as far as a growth spurt, molly is 10mths and still only 3.8, I keep waiting for one to. she is still very healthy though

best to you

That the female gets heavier when she is mature, and able to have puppies.....not sure if that is true or not.......I do see at the shows that most girls need to be 5 ish.....I think...depending on the judge...

Good luck she is a cutie...

She is very pretty......I have seen some small females in the ring....maybe give her a try and see what response you get from the judges in the puppy classes.....plus it gives you more time to see if she will grow anymore.

YorkieRose · 12-29-2007, 05:53 PM

She has a decent size frame, leg, neck, not squatty like so many 3 pounders...I would wait and see..she could certainly go another pound...and they are showing a much smaller Yorkie now then in years past...

MorkieAZ · 12-29-2007, 05:56 PM

Well whatever she does, she is a beauty, She's already won in my opinion.
Good luck and hope she is all you hope for.

kalina82 · 12-29-2007, 06:04 PM

She's so pretty!! I'd give her a shot in the ring and see what the judges say. If they say she's too small you can always send her to me

yorkiekist · 12-29-2007, 08:43 PM

She is only 6 months old. I would hold on to her for awhile. She just might top 5 lbs at 14 months. she is beautiful and cobby, great top-line. I wish my show hopeful would have gotten a little bigger. Both parents are 6 1/2 lbs and she is only 3 1/2 lbs at 1 year old. I hate starting over again!!!

Rose she is very nice I would hold on to her for another 6 months, there is a chance for 5 lbs.

OMGosh, she is Beautiful....love her coat....I would say love her no matter what....so or no show...she still is a cutie....

i have already told you what I would do. i wouldd put her in the ring in the puppy classes as others have said and see what kind of reaction you get. My girl weighs a little under four pounds and did well with her first show as you know. acouple of the judges were wild about her. But even if she is small at one year old, I am still going to show her unless she is finished by then.
