I looked at many yorkies before I bought mine. Some (not all) would actually lie about how much their yorkies or the puppies weigh. One lady told us that the female was 6 pounds and the male was 4. We got their to look and the female must have been 12 to 14 lbs. The male was about 10. I held them.
I don't care if yorkies are larger than Show yorkies, I want a pet who's healthy. What's a couple of pounds anyway?
Has anyone else had this experience?
