If it work out and they accept each other fine, but do you think this could be part of the problem...that he's so much larger?

I was provided with a pedigree lineage and Irish Kennel Club papers (required here). Is it possible he's a big Yorkie?
He is a bigger yorkie. The yorkie ancestors were larger and they were bred dpwn to the 7lbs and under size. Ive heard reputable show breeders on here even say every now and then a bigger yorkie comes from there lines. Dont get caught up in the silky thread because I dont believe that yorkie is a silky either because a reputable rescue told her it was a yorkie and they would have gotten that info from the old owners that had the pedigree. However if it makes her feel better that her dog is a silky I quess thats all that matters
