Well, my point was that this woman in the Atlanta airport ONLY spoke about weight. It was, frankly, kind of odd that nothing else came up. She (the owner) was fixated on the size of the dog. Like I said, it seemed like a fashion accessory instead of a pet. Just my observation. All Yorkies seem pretty small to me. My Edie (who is probably larger than most of your pups) raises eyebrows because most people think she is so small even though she is a good-sized Yorkie. I don't dwell on it though. I simply point out that she is ALL DOG and that she can catch a frisbee in mid-air as well as any border collie! Edie is much more than her size....
