I have to guiltily raise my hand and say....before I got my first yorikie and found this wonderful site that I was one of those hated people

. Fact is untill I did research on yorkies when getting ready to buy mine I assumed that they were like poodles with the teacup minis and standards. I dont think most people are trying to be rude it is what our brains have been made to believe. Now we get just the opposite constantly being asked the teacup thing and having to explain. Yesterday as we walked Laddy down in Branson a man came up and said...You know you could of got a full size dog for the same price

. I just looked him in the face and said yes but never a more full size heart than our little man has.
