It is so refreshing hearing from some of you with Yorkies that aren't so tiny after all!!!! They are still very small dogs and the world is certainly a much safer place for them than it is for the teeny tiny little ones.
I'm afraid that there are going to be more and more tiny little Yorkies because people are buying them and breeding them. People can try and justify this all they want ---but it is a shame that this is being done. A lot of little mother Yorkies and a lot of their little babies are paying the price for those that survive and are healthy.
I don't blame people too much for bringing home a little Yorkie that has already been born, but breeding to produce more tiny ones is something I cannot condone. And - many people are doing just this.
How often have I read - the mother weighs only 3 pounds and the father weighs only 4 pounds --- ??? I think this is criminal. But, I am sure a lot of people disagree with me.
