Default You may have a yorkie

You can have two dogs of different sizes from the same litter, I have siblings, that I definately know are brother and sister from the same litter. My girl is 5 pounds, while my boy is 8+pounds. No one can assure that a littler of pups will be all the same size. The show standard just states that yorkshire terriers be less than 7 pounds, but if you do enter a dog smaller than 4 pounds, especially a female, the judge will hardly ever put that dog up. A male, maybe, but never a female. Some yorkies can grow as large as 18 to 20 pounds, although you don't see them that often. Silky's have a longer body than the yorkies and their faces seem to be slightly longer in the nose.
