I can understand your need for a smaller dog. There are other considerations besides walking around with a YT in your arms. My dog is 8+ lbs. (she was supposed to be less than 5 lbs!) and even though I don't have back problems, it would be much easier to bathe her and lift her for grooming, etc., if she were not as heavy. I love her and hope she lives as long as I do, but if I were to buy another Yorkie, I would buy an older puppy whose weight could be predicted better. |
