If anything I would have kept her for six months, had her spayed and placed in a pet home. To be honest with you any breeder that is willing to sell a puppy that is so off center from the rest, well lets just say that it comes back to bite you in your a$.
Thanks joyziegirl, and I get your point. Minnie definitely doesn't look like a purebred Yorkie, and she shouldn't have been sold as one, especially with the breeder saying that her coat would grow in later--that alone was deceptive. I am confident of Minnie's results (that she carries 90% or more Yorkie genes), and to me this shows that it only takes one or two bad genes to completely throw a wrench into a breeder's program. And I also think that the tests prove that Minnie is not a Chorkie or some other mixed breed, she is just a poorly bred Yorkie. And I'm not saying that to be mean to Minnie, because as I said, she is unique and special.
