The thing is: both parents are small, mom 2.8 lbs and dad 3 lbs, both looking very beautiful and healthy! I emailed the breeder asking info and requesting a girl (which will be sprayed) and asking if there is a chance that they would lower the price a little for a serious person that will take proper care with tons of love. They told me that I should keep in touch in Sept when the litter is there.
So my question is for all the Yorkie pro's here, is this weight and size is okay? Does any of you own a smaller size yorkie? It does come with all the passport, paper works, vet checkup and a guarantee. I do have a name already  and I do have a vet already as I have a Lily my cat who was a stray
What are your thoughts?
Thank you! |
It is absolutely unimaginable to me that anyone is actually breeding a Yorkie that weighs under 3 lbs!!!!!!! I am praying this was a typo! If this person is actually breeding such a tiny dog, you need to run as fast as you can.....you do NOT get "tiny dogs" where the money is for "greeders" that do the breeding strictly for the $$$ they can make off these unfortunate little souls......you get "tiny" yorkies as a fluke of breeding, and in a litter you get "throw backs" from their pedigrees that MAY produce a tiny baby.....but ETHICAL breeders do NOT breed yorkies to get tiny babies.....Unethical breeders on the other hand, they do it STRICTLY for the $$$$$ they charge for these tiny little dogs, even tho they would die a bloody death denying that is what they are doing!
