This is a Yorkie Forum. For Yorkies in the main, although all our furbutts are welcome here.

Teapot Yorkies has a much needed educational tool, for folks to understand that purebred Yorkies can weigh over 7 lbs.

Everything else is well just a Yorkie. Under 7lbs you meet the Standard for a Yorkie.

And the YTCA does say don't breed a female under 5 lbs.

There is no delineation of Yorkies per the Standard as teacup, micro or mini etc.

So if you have a Yorkie under 7lbs so what ? It is a Yorkie period, that meets the weight standard for the Yorkie.

It seems here the belief is that very tiney Yorkies have more health problems. For me my logic says that may be so. How-ever my science side of me says I don't have studies that show this.

My science side and my logic side both concur that Yorkies of what-ever size have more than enough health problems as is, and until we get to the bottom of this problem; size of the Yorkie is the very least of our issue.
