what size Susanah is?
I took her to see my mother in law today and she wrinkled up her nose and said, "She's awfully BIG. Are you sure she pure yorkie?"
She's 14 weeks old and weighs 3.2 pounds. Her breeder and I predicted she would most likely weigh at least 5 and probably 6 pounds when full grown. That is NOT big. That is right within breed standard. I don't understand why it matters anyway! She could weigh 200 pounds and I wouldn't love her any less. I understand that she is uneducated about yorkies (she truly is), its just the way she said it that has me angry - the way she wrinkled her nose and said it like there was something wrong with Susanah.
She then went on and on about how she wasn't as pretty as Annie-Belle was. "She is just so dark and awkward looking!"
First, I think she is every bit as beautiful as Annie-Belle. She is darker and a little bigger, but still just absolutely gorgeous! Even Annie-Belle went through an awkward phase at around 12 - 16 weeks old. I always referred to it as her pimply teenager period.
I just needed to vent because I think its rude to down someone's baby that way.
to her!
