Alot of people only want "teacups". I really prefer the "bigger" yorkies because they have less health issues (to a certain extent of course), less problems with labor and delivery, and they are better suited for families with small children. If yorkies were never "bred down" by MAN, we would all have 7-9 pounders on average!
LOL bigger than 7-9..they used to be bred to be a lot bigger, in the upper teens...
