Whats a couple extra pounds?? It may save heart ache in the long run.

you're right. I agree with this as well. actually, i don't know how to compare sizes and such because I have only seen a yorkie "in person" maybe twice in my life! 5 lbs would be fine. I really don't want to get any bigger though. I think the reason why I am stressing myself for tiny(er) is because it isn't guaranteed, and I am sure breeders will estimate downwards to appeal. That, and as I said, I don't even really know how large the standard would be! I have nothing to go off of.
I had quite a bit more to say, I tryed to edit the post but i was not allowed to "5 minutes after the original post" Oh well. I will keep you folks updated.
-The first post mentioned puppies I was going to visit this week... but, the boy told me they were 1lb at 6 1/2 weeks and his father said 2lbs today (and 8 inches long) so, I bet they have quite a bit to go!
I have a feeling this search will not be short-lived. Thats okay, in fact, it will make that special day even brighter when it does come. : )
