I feel her pain. People always tell me Harley must be a silky bc he has silver hair mixed in and weighs too much. But tell her not to worry about people like that. Firstly, yorkies come in all colors and sizes just like people do. And just bc he's not the 'show ring' colors do NOT make him any less of a yorkie than anyone elses. And you know what, even if deep down in my Harleys DNA if he is mixed with something else that doesn't make him any less of a wonderful dog as any show dog. Tell your friend she should definately join YT
