I'mnew and Curious...
I recently purchased a CKC yorkie. The seller said she hasn't registered any of the pups just yet but would do so and sent me the paper work. She seemed like a very respectful breeder and a friend of mine has purchased from her before. Does it seem ok to wait for this info or no?
Pixie was born in NOv of 09 and will be 3mo old V-day. She is currently 1lb 6oz. Super cute!! But she looks like a chihuahua!! According to her breed line she is purebreed and her parents have the normal yorkie look. The litter was 4 pups the other 3 had the regual yorkie pup look but Pixie just seems to not be growing a longer/thick coat of hair. I did get her a little cheaper because she started to get kennel cough which is being treated and getting way better. When I compared pics of her to yorkies and chihuahuas I see that her ears are more of the yorkie look but her itty bitty body has me confused. I just know she had to be the runt! I think shes super cute and was just hoping her hair would grow later and be less maintance than a regular long haired yorkie. To me she is just as cute as the ones who get a monthly cut.
I do have a few questions though. ..
According to the vet its a genetic fault with her hair growth. If in the way distance future she were to breed with a regular haired yorkie- what are the chances of them making long haired yorkies? Would they be saleable or would it all depend on who the buyer is. I wouldn't want to sell them as yorkies, but they're not mixed just "different." Again I'm not looking to breed her I am just saying for a what if factor. I mean I love the fact she is different but others might find her as just rat like ugly.
Does anyone have a older yorkie that has never grew hair or has the natural shorter coat? I would love to see what she will possibly look like as she gets older.
Again I think shez amazing and I love "different!" Shes tiny, spunky, lovable, and all around the best outcast ever!

I would just love some info. I'm confused on reg legged, wired hair, everything. Here are a few pix of Lid'l Miss Pixie.
(P.S. Yes she wears a collar, no I do not put her on a lead just yet, and yes I have a small harnes for her when I do decide to use the lead. just wanted to throw that out there for ya.
