Chewy looks like a yorkie. Do you know how to locate the breeder? Does she have silkies too?

When Bell had her first litter, she had three pups. One was tiny, will be around 5lbs, one was bigger , Gosh who knows hopefully not over 8lbs, and then there is Lilly. Lilly is a big girl weighs probably around 4lbs now at 13 weeks. I don't know much about Bell's great grandparents, maybe there is a big yorkie somewhere in the generations, and unless you know Chewys ancestors, you will never really know the truth.

But as far as size there are plenty of large yorkies around and many of their owners are members of YT. Lenore has brownie and he is a big boy too.

According to AKC history: The Silky Terrier comes from the Australian Terrier crossed with a Yorkshire.

A silky should only weigh 8-10 lbs and should only be 9-10 inches at the shoulders.

So you see Silkies are supose to be small too!

If people want a big yorkie all they have to do is look, there are plenty of people who have them.
