I'm used to hearing some pretty Stupid comments & questions about my Yokie's but tonight......I took my smallest one of my 3 Yorkie's, Pom-Pom
who weighs 5 lbs., her Birthday is on Sept. 2nd, she'll be 2 yrs. old. It was her first time away from her Parents Artie & Abigail. I wanted to see how she would react in Public by herself. She did very well around screaming/running children and even the "Fireworks" show did'nt scare her until the Finale she started getting nervous. She was sitting quietly on my lap when some drunk
came up to me in front of all his Friends (6 total strangers) and started pointing @ her asking me "Hey what kind is she"? I replied she's a Yorkie.
Then he said "Me & my Wife were just looking @ a Silky Teacup, they wanted
$1,500.00 for that thing" and then he pulled out his cell phone, I got a picture of it right here, it was a picture of a Yorkie. He also asked why mine did'nt have any long Hair? I answered it's only 2 yrs. old it takes time to grow
they're not born like that. I tried not to waste too much time & energy trying to explain facts to an ignorant "Drunk" who could'nt afford one anyway!
He was also commenting on how the "Silky Teacup" only grows to 3 lbs.
I know my 3 are AKC. Registered Yorkshire Terriers, I don't know of any other kind of "Yorkie's"?
