Out of curiosity to others, why hasn't AKC added a minimum weight to the standards? Maybe I'm just missing it. New thread on another probably very worn out question!

"Weight: Must not exceed seven pounds." why no minimum
I think that's a really good question, I have wondered about that myself.

BTW, it wouldn't be up to the AKC, it's the breed club for each breed that decides what the standard is -- in this case the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America.
