 Not a purse puppy, but still small.
Do you have anything in writing as far as a guarantee on size? I don't think any reputable breeder would do this, because there ISN'T any guarantee on size, no matter how well you know your line and I hope she was upfront w/ you on this, even though it doesn't sound like it. If you have something in writing, you may be able to hold her to it. It'd be nice if there was any way that you can return some of the things you bought for a smaller Yorkie and get your money back? Maybe if you can produce receipts the breeder might be willing to reimburse you for some of your purchases because you didn't get what you were looking for in size? NO, that'd be nice, but in all honesty, she should've told you not to go out buying things for an adult dog that you don't even know the final size of. That's where we ALL get into problems. You just have to trust the breeder, but more importantly watch her grow and wait to buy adult items until they are at least 10 months.
As far as the airline transportation goes, most policies are now 13 lbs and I believe that does not include the weight of the crate. The dimensions just need to be appropriate per airline so that it will fit under the seat in front of you. It quite unlikely that she'll get to be that big, but know that you should still be able to carry her around and travel w/ her just fine. |
