It's possible he has some silky terrier in him, but they have really great hair at least! Yorkies don't lose all their baby hair at once, like some breeds, it kind of just grows out, and what your describing sounds like what happened to Joey. Cotton coats tend to grow much faster than silky coats, and it can take a couple of years before you really know what kind of a coat he has. I agree with you, the records sound like they were written wrong, I doubt if he gained that much weight in 10 days, but if he was also dehydrated, I guess it could happen. Lots of purebred yorkies are bigger, and size alone doesn't indicate if they are full blood. I'm glad he found a good home and he's getting lots of good food!
