I don't think an additional class of Yorkies is necessary. Larger Yorkies pop up out of litters the same way tinies do -- maybe not 17 pounds, but larger. You can find good breeders with larger Yorkies, but it takes a little extra looking. |
I agree. I like the standard where it is. There will never be a shortage of larger yorkies, as they happen often.
My two at 6 and 5 pounds are the perfect size for me. I carry them around at the same time and it is easy enough for me to do it. If they were much larger, I would not be able to take them both everywhere like I do.
