I do think there is an 'unhealthy' obsession with verrrry tiny dogs..smaller the better. I knew that i wanted a smaller yorkie..say 4-5lbs. My breeder warned me Pixie was going to be a little one..she said 3.5-4lbs.. she is 3lbs at 13 months old..a bit smaller than i expected..which did worry me..but she is healthy, strong and very feisty! good apetite and the picture of health so i'm not as worried now as i was. If she had turned out 8lbs i wouldn't love her any less..my last Yorkie girl was around 6lbs and i thought she was tiny! I guess people think the smaller they are, the cuter they are..and easier to carry around everywhere...which i can relate to as i wanted a tiny girl that i could carry around with me...my hubby is in the Airforce and goes away often..I wanted a little companion that could be with me practically 24/7 and i do confess i carry her around like a baby!
lol she's my life and makes me smile everyday she's everything i ever wanted in a Yorkie..petite & pretty..and most importantly..Healthy & Happy!
