Sometimes breeders produce too small and too BIG! Hi all!
Just adding my input to this thread...
My yorkie is considered a Biewer and definitely considered "out of standard".
I wanted a yorkie adult companion dog and I was 'counting' on the fact that many times breeders will produce a yorkie that is out of standard or... they retire an adult male or female that is 3 years old or older. I actually was not seeking a "Biewer" - but Tyke fit the criteria I was working with as he is an adult and very much on the 'large' side. He will be neutered next week and I am certain that he will greatly compliment my life as my sweetie companion!
There are many people seeking an out of standard companion and thus there will always be yorkies that are too big. Unfortunately, it seems that the teeny tiny dogs have become way too popular and so we have the tiniest - previously unheard of - "tea cup" size dogs available now. If someone can offer a safe environment where the teeny dog can happily live - I don't see why it should concern anyone else if the dog is extremely small.
Just my humble view here.
