It is wonderful that you are learning so much before getting your Yorkie. I assume much of what you are learning is by reading this forum or books, but I hope you are also finding a way to actually meet, see, hold and play with real live Yorkies too. That will give you a tremendous sense of what they are really like, and of size differences. Your weight limit of 5# and under is quite restrictive. My Yorkie Tiki is now 7#, and still a very small dog; and with her bone structure she is actually too skinny. Even seeing the parents won't guarantee the adult weight of pups, and many many people here have been surprised to end up with Yorkies that exceed their expectations, yet they love them just as much.
It would be great if you could go to a Yorkie meetup or club activity to get a hands on feel for them and see what a variety of colors, sizes, personalities, etc. exist in this wonderful breed.
Good luck with this and your own weight goals. |
