If I get one, I prefer a larger pup.  |
Well you certainly are not a rookie at owning dogs, you know the importance of schedules. With tiny yorkies many ppl free feed them, so a schedule may not work. Wanting a bigger yorkie and actually getting one is a challenge, all depends on what you mean by a bigger yorkie. A reputable breeder breeds to standard size which is 5 to 7 Lbs.
My pack of 3 are now all passed, 3 girls, all 3 years apart, all were mighty hunters and tom boys. When the two older ones passed the baby was 6 years old, she grieved for 7 months, so I just had to get her a BFF. My beautiful Matese as an adult weighed in at 17 Lbs lol, talk about big yorkies. I have a picture of her sleek body stalking a critter that was under a small shed, in my album. In my avatar there is a pic. of her burying a toy in one of my planters lol. She passed away in 2013 at the age of 17 years old. Not a day goes by that she is not in my thoughts and I still cry, I miss her so much.
