Is it just me, or do you feel that you are looked down on because of your Yorkie's size? It seems that everytime I meet somebody with a Yorkie(s) the first thing they ask is "how much does she weigh?" When I tell them, they say oh, she's big and then they say their YT is only 2 lbs. or 3 lbs. or whatever. This happened to me recently in my doctor's office, the receptionist had a picture (it looked like a professional portrait) of her two Yorkies on the counter and when I commented on how beautiful they were and asked how old hers are and told her about mine, the whole tone of her voice changed and it was like, oh you poor thing. I couldn't believe it, but it's happened since then in a more civilized fashion. Am I just paranoid or does this happen to anyone else?
