a piece (I have 3 Yorkies). Another stupid statement "Did you cut/crop their ears"? Since their Yorkie has Floppy ears. Too many people judge them b/c of their size and the fact that I make mine "Walk" and don't carry them in a purse. I do try to educate as many people as I can tolerate it depends on my mood and how time I have? Most of the time I just ignore them but I get really irritated and frustrated who came up w/the term "Teacup" any way if they don't exist?  |
OMG this reminds me of another story. I took pebbles to the vety last week cus she has a cough.. as i was leaving, someone who worked there said .. IS SHE A PURE YORKIE? and i said yes why? i know her coat is dark... and she said, "because her ears are standing up!!" and she looked all confused, like genuinely confused. and I said what? her ears have always stood up, yes shes a full yorkie. LOL i should have said, uhh the yorkie standard is to have thier earrs stnading up! silly people. its so funny how uneducated some people are
