I had a yorkie that was 10 lbs and yes they can be bigger. The yorkie breed originated from breeds that were much bigger than the breed standard of 4-7 lbs they are today. From the picture on your profile page I would guess that Alexa is a full bred yorkie. It's always wise to see a pups parents before buying; I'd guess that either one of them was on the larger side OR they were bred from lines with larger than standard size yorkies, OR every so often a bigger than average yorkie will pop up in a litter. But any way you look at it.............there is just more to love. |
