Carol Jean, I totally agree with every word you said. I have had small yorkies in the past, and always seemed to be hovering over them, worrying that they'll get hurt jumping off furniture, etc. We all know terriers like to rough-house a lot, and the sturdier the dog, the better. When we decided to add yorkies to our family again, we deliberately asked several breeders if they had any 'larger' males. And we couldn't be happier with our two little tough guys. Snickers is 8 lbs and Baxter weighs in at 12 lbs. and I do a lot less worrying!
