And as long as you love your baby, it doesn't really matter what weight he/she is. I had a dachshund a few years back, and he was suppose to be a Mini-dachshund. Well, he turned out to be 23 pounds. He was my fat Charlie and my boy! I couldn't have loved him more if he was 8 or 10 pounds. Just love and enjoy your Yorkie.  |
Thanks for your comment. That makes me feel better. I adore Moty and can't imagine my life without him, but a few days ago a friend said I had been taken by the breeder because he couldn't be a purebred yorkie because of his size. Your example of the sisters was a VERY good one.
