Those little dogs look "off" - hardly resemble the hardy little terrier originally bred for killing rats and other small critters in the mills and farms of England. Don't even look like Yorkies except prick ears, some of the coloring. A fall from the bed or couch could likely be severely damaging to a dog that tiny, especially when it is older and more brittle - and perhaps living in the home of someone with a slab foundation.

I wonder what the average lifespan of "High End" Yorkies is? And would be interested to know the average vet bill of the owners of those poor little dogs. Bet the breeder wouldn't dare post that information and she must have a pretty good idea of both from the pile of complaints that no doubt rain in.
