Size in my opinion is only one of many considerations, and not a very important one at that. Standard is seven pounds and below, but many beautiful Yorkies are bigger than that. What do you know about this breeder, what kind of health screening does she do, what registry does she use, how long has she been breeding? What types of coats do the parents have? Silky coats are so much easier to care for than cotton. A dog is a 15-year investment, and will become an important family member, try to find the best breeder you can, and don't rush into anything. By the way, breeders always say someone else is interested; it makes you feel like you have to act fast, and this is not a good way to find a pet. I also have never heard of a breeder saying a dog will get over 7 pounds, although many do. |
