My Pixie is just about 3lbs, she wasn't bred to be that small..it just happened, her breeder was worried her brother would end up over standard! She is very happy and healthy so far...its usually the tiny yorkies that have been bred specifically to be very tiny that usually end up with health problems..if you are looking for a smaller yorkie i think it is better to find a good reputable breeder that just happens to have a tiny..you may have a longer search but it will be worth it! Pixie was sold to me by a hobby show breeder because she would be too small to show & breed...and she didn't sell her to me for a ridiculous price either..she was the same price as any of her other puppies, regardless of size, she could have asked for alot of money for her if she wanted, and probably would have got it...Pixie is very pretty,petite & perfect in every way!...biased i know! lol
