I totally agree that size really shouldn't be a primary consideration. I would be more interested in looking at the face, body shape, hair type, and more importantly for a pet parent, line health history and temperament.

and its really not about my yorkie, or anybody's yorkie in particular. all yorkies/dogs are beautiful from the inside out. standards and terms are created by people, who are also the ones creating problems. dogs themselves don't get to choose how they look, they are as innocent as babies. it just bothers me to see judgemental comments made againest some dogs' appearance/size, espcially on YT. no yorkie should be labeled as crazy from appearance, even the ones from BYBers who don't have the optimal features.

I would be so happy to see Dolly putting on some weight, and we are working on in. we are consulting a nutritionist and doing as much homecooking as possible. but I love her regardless. honestly size doesn't matter, just like some people are taller and some are shorter, no one is superior unless you are planning on being a model, for pet parents espcially, its just a preference!
and thanks for the sweet comments on my girl
