Congratulations! You have now made the choice to have your heart walk outside your body by making the choice to buy a yorkie! They are very easy to fall in love with and oh the 1st one always holds that SPECIAL piece of your heart!

You are pretty safe at ordering XS for a puppy if they are bred from breed specific sized parents. If the parents are larger or the breeder keeps the puppy longer than normal, you may want a size small. Just know they grow quick in the beginning so you could go with one or two XS items and the rest small.

I have clothed my yorkies from day one. I also suggest a small knot/pony tail on their head each morning when you wake to get them used to that as well unless you plan on keeping him/her cut short. Make sure you take the hair down and brush it at night so it doesn't tangle. I have a new baby getting used to clothing and ponytails right now! I pu clothes on them from time to time but I love a full coat so I don't leave them dressed for long periods of time so thier hair does not tangle and break.
